Has anyone used the Lamin

I want to smoke my tail lights dark, almost stealth, and I want to see what the Lamin -x film looks like. Does anyone have any pictures? Thank you for your help.

Not sure of the brand, but I purchased the film from Bimmian last year. I had it on my Space M3 for about a week. It looked OK from a distance, but up close it wasn't cut properly and you could see the red borders around the film. I had it taken off and had the lenses sprayed a light smoke instead. Much better look (unless you are leasing, then you probably have to go the film route).

Good Luck!

+1, painting is a better option for longevity and quality.

Here is a pic to give you an idea of what it look like, i do not recommend you doing this cause they do not come cut to fit the lights, i was very un-happy after i installed it. I am going to remove this crap and get it doen by a pro' shop. Save your money and take it to a pro and get them painted.
