    Just some 35% tint to match the rears and some 285/70/17 Falkens…

    I wanted amber fog lights to match my amber LED parking lamps / turn signals. Taco Vinyl made them and sold them for like $15 a set. Super easy to apply. One note: I did end up buying two of them because after putting one set of overlays on, they actually looked yellow. I did contact them, sent them photos, and they agreed they definitely looked yellow, not amber. They did send me a second set (at no additional charge), explaining to put this set over the pre-existing set, and they'll actually look amber. They were correct and this is the final result.

    I was very happy with the product and the customer service from Taco Vinyl. Just a heads up in case anyone is looking for a cheap / simple mod...I will post the link under comments, too.

    Did they change the film after your feedback? Or are two sets of film required to match the Lasfit Amber led bulb?

    I don’t think they changed the film…I think they updated their website to more accurately show what their version of “amber” looks like. Good question…

    Lift, tires, fender flares, fangs, engine cover, window tint, window channel deflector, skid plate.
    I have them also, just one layer. I may still upgrade the fog lights to something else, but it was a cheap stop gap measure.

    Yeah I mean for the small investment ….it’s worth it. Makes for a nice additional “running light” when driving at dusk, etc.

    Yes. I did the same with yellow. I like the contrast in appearance, along with the color and visibility in hazy conditions.

    I’m very happy with them…just like I said, be aware you may need to double them up to get that true amber look…

    No worries. I’ll check out the first set and go from there.

    Your new wheels are cool. Take care.
