Tail Light Tint — Complete the Look of Your Car in Just Half an Hour
Tail lights are designed to inform everyone driving behind about what we plan to do — brake, turn, stop etc. They are also quite vulnerable (scratches, minor bumps, road chips) and could use some extra protection. Plus if we are in the process of upgrading the design of our car, we absolutely cannot miss this part — the vehicle has to look good from every angle! Do tail light stickers help? Yes they do.

What kind of tint can be used for the tail lights?
Films that are used for tail lights tinting differ from the ones that are used for window tinting. Usual automotive vinyl films are not as strong. Tail light tint films have superior temperature resistance.
Tail light tinting laws are not as strict as the headlights ones. Moreover, there is not much heat coming out from the tail lights, so darker films can be used without a risk of overheating.
We offer many options for legal tail light tint films in different colors and effects — matte or glossy, light or dark smoke, or even a chameleon shine!
Cons of tail light tint film
- If your tail lights have a difficult shape – car manufacturers are very fond of experimenting with the design and shape of the lights, especially with the tail ones. Therefore, they can have very unusual shapes. It is difficult for installers to tint particular car models so the job can be more expensive and time consuming. For example the Dodge Charger has a tail light that is stretched along the entire length of the trunk- it takes more film and effort to cover the whole light with film so overall the job would cost more.
- If tail lights are tinted with poor quality film. If a poor quality film is used for tail light tinting, it can easily be damaged by temperature and significantly decrease road safety. We recommend only installing quality films at licensed installers. The high quality films we install at Tinting Chicago will last more than two years and would not interfere with the comfort of other traffic participants.
