    you cant put window tint on the tails. they are contoured too weird to pull it off.

    you can make VHT look really good and thats probably what it is. i used it on my tails, but i didnt go about making them really nice and smooth.

    im pretty sure its possible....

    YouTube - Installation Video - Headlight and Tail Light Tint Film

    also how does flip do it if he hates VHT so much?

    it might not be window tint, but it certainly looks like it...

    To tint them, I used VHT and then used some clear coat.

    95% sure you can order it from summit. otherwise look for offroad trucking places.
