nice, tt. And to answer your question there are three normal ways to tint tail/headlights.

1) buy pretinted ones
2) use a tinting film over them
3) you can buy spray tint and tint your lights by painting them.

which one is easier? it seems like a hassel to paint them, cause i don't really want to take them apart if i don't have to.

Welcome to the forums and looking forward to seeing your pictures.

Of course buying new ones would be the easiest way!

But to be honest, I would think using the spray is the easiest way to do it. However, you may not be able to "un-tint" them as you might get tired or simply want to put them back to stock.

I think you can untint them if you paint them. I personally think painting would be the easiest way because you can control how dark they get.
