I used a vinyl tint got it precut on Ebay for 15 bucks, I decided to cut the tint so you could see the silver part of the assembly I assist trading the assembly out of the car to do it as it only takes 2 minutes to remove the assembly from the car...I taped the tint still on the wax paper to the tail light and used my phone flashlight so I could see the outline if the silver and just cut that part out I had never worked with vinyl before so it took about 3 hours from start to finish but I was very happy with the end results
