Please keep us updated and let us know how the film ages. I have Lamin-X on the headlights of all my cars. The film on the headlights do fade significantly, which I don't really mind since it's the headlights because I really just wanted it for the protection and getting a different color/tint is just a little bonus. But I'm not sure that I would want the rears to fade to a shade of pink. With that said, I don't know if the rear film is made of the same material as the headlight - maybe someone what has both can comment?

So...fear of fading is the reason why I didn't get the Lamin-X for the rear. The film that I got from member "Romeo" still matches well after 3 years!
