Has anyone done this? The only negative thing I've heard is that it can warp the plastic if it's in the sun too long.

Had it on two of my Mustangs and the corners of the lights warped because of the heat they trap inside the housing. Not sure what the solution is
But everything worked fine and the only thing wrong was a 2" dimple on the side of my tail lights. I think the look is worth the dimple...Especially on white!
I have the removable tint if that's what you are talking about. I took it off for the summer months, it goes back on when I clean the car next time.

I bught some tail light tint from Rvinyl.com, works great, and they are precut perfectly. Mke sure you dont do it on a windy day or else you will get little creases like i did lol. But it looks great, pretty dark during the day and still bright at night when you turn the lights on so it wont be hard for other people to see if your stopping or not.
Tony did his and they look great. He might have some info on it.

yeah, i had mine clear coated. my painter put some black in the clear, and they are dark. honestly, a little too dark imo. if i ever have to do it again, i will get whatever overlays that imshakn has. those things look great, and plus they are removable.
here is what my clear coated lights look like...
got them on Ebay for like 20 bucks shipped from a seller recommended by others on the Mach 1 Registry. I'll see if I can find out who
