> 24 hourThis one a little dark even for LED and because of the adhesive pattern it is very visible through headlight at night when lit. Just didnt look clear enough to look good for me. Ill be completely honest that it made my car very sharp until the lights came on. Such a bummer.

> 24 hourNope. Look, I watched the instructional video more than once, several times in fact. The guy doing it is obviously a pro. I am not. First time trying this and its a no go for me. It was a pure headache. Does great on flat surfaces but curves and edges were horrible. Tore it all off this morning, I hated how it looked. The black was entirely too dark, but looked great with lights on. I tried this because in the past Ive painted lights and thought this would be a wonderful way to avoid the steps and process of THAT operation. This looked decent from a distance, but up close it was absolutely horrible. Im not saying it was the product, Im sure it was mostly me. However, I was just not satisfied with it and will be painting here soon. I tried, but ultimately wasted money and time.

> 24 hourI put this on the head lights and running lights in front of my 2006 silverado. I put it on the tail light lenses and it took about 2 hours to smooth it on the curved surfaces. After successfully doing that, I can only see the tail lights from 6ft away. I have bright LED bulbs in the tail lights so it should have been brighter. Even the white reverse lights were dim. I dont blame vivvid, you just have to use a lighter tint for these tail lights. I wasted tint and 2 hours to find that out. My rear lenses are in bad shape is why I wanted to tint them. I just ordered a new pair of smoked ones. The front ones look good but I have bright LEDs in all of them so it kind of helps on coming drivers with the brightness. I dont know how it does with halogen bulbs.

> 24 hourUnlike traditional tinting material, this vinyl air tint doesnt require and skill to use. It adheres to the surface of the glass/plastic dry, and when you did not like how it may be laying on the surface, just peel it back up and redo it. This tint is also pretty thick as it is vinyl not a traditional film. This makes it very easy to pull and shape around hard edges, bulbous shapes, and varying contours with just a little heat from a hair drier or heat gun. It took me all of about 10-15 minutes to tint the fog lights on my Mustang, with the lights removed from the grill, and it was my first go at using this tint. I am very happy with it - and if the day comes that I am not, I can just peel it right off of the lights and they will be right back to normal again. Update: Decided to tint the headlights as well. The dark black looks fantastic against the red paint, but it definitely cuts down on the headlight output dramatically - even with ultra-bright LEDs. I dont drive this car often, and really only during the day, so I wasnt overly concerned with that. If you want to see clearly at night, use the smoke tint for your headlights.

> 24 hourMy 124 spider looked pretty great from all angles except for a strange backup/reverse light setup in the middle of the exhaust diffuser. It looked like an add-on based on a safety requirement in Italy or Europe. You just dont see this lamp arrangement on most cars. The sister platform Mazda MX-5 doesnt have this light. I thought that dark lens tint would do the job of blending this lens into the black diffuser. You can see the before and after pics here. My advice is to cut plenty of extra lens tint--maybe 5 to 6 inches--all around the shape youre wrapping. That gives you plenty of material to handle while youre placing the vinyl without having to touch the backing where it contacts your lens. I wore nitrile gloves to smooth the vinyl slowly from the middle of the lens out to the edge. The curved edges want to bunch up initially but you can just gently lift the material (by the extra edges you left) and continue to smooth out the vinyl. Im in Las Vegas and it was pretty warm while I was applying the vinyl so the material wanted to conform where I wanted it to go, for the most part. I did use a heat gun, lightly, to get the last few edges smoothed out. Use a small Exacto knife--I used an inexpensive one with the snap-off blade tips--and take your time. You want to place the blade against the surrounding surface and follow the contour of that surface while you cut. Dont cut with the blade straight down, but angle the blade out towards the surrounding surface so you leave as much vinyl as you can while still outlining the edge. You dont need to make the cut in a continuous line. As a matter of fact, that makes it harder to do because you end up with your wrist at very odd angles and you cant maintain the proper line. Just carefully make one cut and then get the proper angle again for the next cut and continue on. When youre done, gently lift away the outside of the extra material. When youve fully peeled away the trimmed material you may have a tiny bit extra around the edge somewhere. Trust me, thats way better than having cut away too much and seeing an exposed lens edge. You can simply tuck that material down with a soft-edged small tool--heating the vinyl gently will help get the material where you want it to go. If you left a bunch too much, carefully trim the edge and then tuck as before. Good luck and do take your time. --JT

> 24 hourThis was my first time wrapping anything, as long as you have patients and a desire to get it done you should be fine. Not sure if this can be applied wet I did a dry application utilizing a heat gun. This is just temporary until I get new headlights. lights still penetrate to the road just fine.

> 24 hourProbably the bets tint I have worked with. Hands down the quality is great and the way that heat gun come in to the game with this tint would make a magical outcome. Just gotta know to start from the middle and let the heat settle it down. Would buy again fasho. Insta @ussavg
