considering doing the same... that taillight install was pretty sloppy in the video though. To me it looked like the small light was not a good fit.
any 1st hand reviews?

Laminex cheap? Its like $50 to for our headlights i think. Considering there is rolls out there for 6-10 dollars Laminex is expensive.
I have noticed though their material is pretty thick. I have the kit for my fog lights but have not installed it yet.
You might get the rainbow color effect by doing this though so dont give up. I am thinking to do a very light tint on mine as well even though they are black from the inside.

installing the laminx looks like installing a zagg on your electronics.

haha...thought so...we all make mistakes...
I've been looking at his photos for awhile now and have been wanting to change my vinyl tint to lamin-x because of his photos...just so lazy...
I can't justify buying that much for a roll of tint that it 6 bucks for a longer roll on ebay, but hey you pay for quality and convenience...I'll go with the gunsmoke most likely to keep the same color theme as the ones I have on my car now...

Yeah they're in my album in my profile...

Can't post them here because I've already used them in another thread...
Also, I don't have xenons either...
Reason why I want to switch to lamin-x is because the lamin-x tint seems to have a "truer black" color instead of an off black like vinyl tint from ebay or other sources...

ahh ic. and i was thinking about buying a sheet of laminx so that i can tint out the tails in the white section like you have done.
and for the fogs. i have 3000k fogs. soooo iono what color to get. im debating of matching with tint or using clear.

There is definitely a decrease in light output, but to be honest everywhere I drive there are always street lights...every street is well lit, but if I do come across a rare street without lights my vision is still fine out the front, but out the side windows it's horrible (but that's because of my 5% tint)...lol...
