Tint or vinyl for reflectors?

renesis · 05-10-2012, 06:45 PM

Hi guys

I have bought clear corners front Z but like many here I decided to say f*** that when I saw how complicated they were to install

So I'm looking at a plan B

My car is lack sapphire so I'm wondering what would look best?

1. Really dark tint
2. A normal black vinyl

Also for those of you who already have either of those, was your tint guy able to wrap around the front of the reflector (non M) without removing them? I'm concerned about that the rear part is easy to access since its easily accessible from the wheel well

Thanks

I used dansdecals (above) and was pretty happy. They are very good to work with, and the color match on Alpine White was pretty good. E-mail them with the exact dimensions and they will custom cut for you - because I don't think the size for a non-M is standard. They did this for me and it worked out fine.
