The company I had do my tinting of the lights is having trouble to keep the film laying flat, do you happen to know what brand film they used on yours or have the name of the company that did it that we could call to get some help up here in Massachusetts? Thanks

As the title says tails and third brake light tinted today. Really happy with results.

If they did what I did, they pulled the "Dodge" lettering off of the assembly. They literally pull off with a pair of pliers. Or they could have done the Plasti-Dip route.

Here is what it looks like if you pull them off:

Really debating whether yanking them off or painting them letters black.

Looks kinda wonky to me with no letters in there. Like the DODGE “lettering” (indentation really) is too fat.

Try the Plasti dip route first, the spray can isn't very expensive. And if you find that works, your good, if not, the stuff peels off pretty easily.

And oddly, the thing keeping me from going that route is the “matte” finish that would stand out on that shiny behind. [emoji28]

I finally saw the Luxe tint on a charger today at work. Those of you that have it, the outline doesn’t bother you? I was all in until I saw them in person and now I’m kind of in the fence about them.

I don't care much about it now, but in the beginning it bugged me. From a few feet away, it isn't really noticeable. Still makes the rear end look good, you just have to look past the outline up close.

Yeah I just put this on my DSRT this weekend and was less than impressed with how the Luxe tint only covered the colored portion of my light. It was a PITA to line up properly too, I can't understand why they didn't make it fit inside the entire area inside the light. It would of looked better and been so much easier to install IMO. Not sure how the charger lights are compared to the D, but Im guessing with you complaining about the outline it is similar to the D. I also have dirt sticking to the outline border along with fibers from the microfiber towel they sent with the kit from wiping the tint off after I installed them. I ordered mine through Amazon and have requested a refund because I am not at all satisfied with how they look. They haven't responded yet as I just did it today, but I guess I'll wait see what they say.

In this case a local tint shop can do it and will cover the entire area within the lights as you mentioned.

They used Luxe universal tint. It’s been great so far!

Thanks, mine keeps releasing at the different stress points, especially when parked i the sun. They scored those areas and while it helped, it's far from perfect. The average person likely wouldn't notice but it drives me crazy.

That would drive me crazy too! I look at it every time I walk up to it. I’m in Texas also, so plenty of heat on this black D.

Shared your info on the film, might want to get the shop number if they have more questions.....i'm close to peeling it off and getting my money back.

Well, after hearing some of your complaints I went with Vvivid Tail Light tint. It’s a whole sheet so will try and cut it as close to the LED racetrack as possible to avoid this “line” some of you were complaining about.

Will let y’all know how it turns out. Seen some YouTube videos and seems like DIY friendly.

I put the luxe kit on my 18 R/T and had some issues. i practically destroyed the practice sheet and still had little confidence it would be done to my liking. Went ahead and put it on anyway since I couldn't return it with parts missing. the outer lights are a PITA! The first one will have to be redone. By the end I had a better system, but still not to my liking. I had the kit that only covers the parts inside the halo. i was unhappy with the way they lined up and feel like you will have to do some modification. I ended with a few small creases in the film. I'm going to ride it out through the winter and figure it out when the weather warms and I have some more cash. I have tinted tail lights in the past with traditional tint film and it was always coming off. I was hoping the vinyl would be better. From a few feet away it look nice, but I know where the flaws are and keep staring at them. Its good enough for now, but I will be looking for something better soon. Liked the idea of tinting the 3rd brake light. I tinted the mirror turn signals with scrap from the tail tints and it looks nice.

Sorry for the crappy pic of the tail light. Its late and I don't want to wake the kids or preggo wife for a photo.

Looks really good. How does the light come through? The light is so dang bright without anything on it, I would imagine it's fine with some tint.

Here is the Luxe on my R/T with the 4 ways on. Slightly overcast day.

Was on the Luxe site today, looks like there tint kit only covers the inside portion of the light. From your picture it looks like you tinted the whole thing including the "halo", what did you use to tint the halo part?

Has the tint held up ok over the last year?

Mine uses there universal tint kit. You have to cut it.

It has held up great. Looks virtually brand new.

For the red decals that go over the SRT logos from reflective decals.com, what red option did you guys choose? Red or reflective red? I want to get ones that match the 392 on the side but not sure which one it is.
