If they don't go away in the heat just pop them with a needle or something.

50% looks good, I think I'm going to go with those because blackouts are too much of a risk

thanks dude..yeah it looks good but the overlays dont completely cover the lights and i took the sidemarker and 3rd brake light tint off and re did them with spray tint and they look 10x better. Problem was that when i was spraying the tint, my car is already almost black so i accidently sprayed alittle of the paint black and tried to wipe it off at made it worse . I hvae come to the conclusion that do-it-yourself projects are always bound to go wrong and are always harder than they appear hahah

I hear ya! My tint project was started a year ago... and im still nowhere near done. i just havent found the time i guess...haha. The good thing is that i have all the parts off of the car, so if i do mess up, i still have my factory lights on the car without anything on my paint.

Steeda, you can poke the bigger bubbles with a needle but you might have to peel them back a little bit and re-apply them if there are a lot of bubbles. I never got mine perfect, but even up close now you really have to look to notice the few bubbles that are there.

alright cool thanks man.

popped my car up today and removed the fog lights and spray tinted them alittle bit and they look badass now i just have to get smoked headlights. I had them before they are in my signature but i mistakenly sold them thinkin that i would get the oem clear ones but i changed my mind and prolly get some off ebay or something. I have to get bright lights though which im going to get later today.

Sorry for stealing your headlights from ya man!

The 50% looks damn good on the true blue!!! I like true blue more and more everytime i see it.

What kinda bright lights you getting? Hids or just different brighter bulbs?
