Default Headlight/Taillight tint film

Has any one used or has had experience with the tint that is for headlight/taillights in reference to quality and so forth. I was thinking about going with www.rvinyl.com

looks pretty legit, i have been looking for something like this but was going to go with a brand called Lamin-X. I previously bought a set of headlight tint off of ebay, but it peeled off and turned blue within a few weeks. I'll give this site a try that you posted because its half the price of lamin-x.

Curious if the tint fades where the light hits the housing? Would be cool to read feed back from someone that has done months ago. I heard of this from my local tint place but was skeptical.

Might lookin to NightShade spray tint as well. There's a good thread on here talking about it and I have friends who have personal good experience with it. Plus you can control the darkness with how many coats you apply.

I bought some headlight tint off ebay and thought it looked pretty sharp. Biggest problem was my first time driving in on back roads at night time. The tint significantly reduced the effect of the head lights. I pulled over and took them off just because i could hardly see!

Lamin-x is good quality. Nightshades is great, too, but treat it like paint ( you wouldn't paint outside and expect no dirt? )
personally i dont know why youd tint your headlights.
precut films are hard because they are what they are, precut, you have to line them exactly or your are srcewed, at my shop we use film by the roll and cut it as neccesary
