I tinted my tails with spray from autozone. Its made by VHT and called nightshade i think. Did it in my garage.

Anyone use lamin-x? Do partial tint? Was thinking of just doing a light smoke on the white portion.

I have some headlight armor films on my GTO, but nothing on the Durango. I used their Stealth Smoke on the fog lights, and clear on the headlights (to protect them on the road course)
