really not worth paying out for unless going for clear

get a can of black tint and some laquer - it's so easy

just done my front indicators and rear lights (amber bit) in red for all of £8

Question

I had thought about doing it my self, but I thought you applied tint to the inside of the lens. How long will it last on the outside.

Thumbs up

I always finish it off with at least two coats of clear laquer to protect them

Did this on a previous car and it still looked as good as the day I did it, a year later when I sold it
