    Got this 2017 Blue Prius Eco Two a few months ago and got bored of driving a mostly stock car and wanted to do some mods to it. Recently got my windows all tinted and thought about doing a new look to the tail lights but didn't want the per usual black smoked look so went with all red. Car was dirty but after a 2 bucket method wash, I really dig the new look! Anyone done other things to the front or rear lights?

    Looks good. What level of tint is that on the rear windows? Here in the UK the Prius comes without any significant tint on all models. Kids were cooking in the back in the sun :/

    Watch out for chip pan fires if they resort to French fries. :ROFLMAO:

    I can see how that might have been ambiguous...

    Thanks Man! I have 5% level tint in the rear for the same reason, too many windows and it gets pretty hot as well!

    Yes I used VHT! Cleaned as well!

    Another picture after a good cleaning!

    Wow! That sounds super dark! How's the view through them at night?

    The tails look good. No concern about spraying the reverse light area?

    Looks really good. That may be a summer mod for me. I’ve tinted tails with black VHT before. I clear coated, wet sanded and buffed them. It came out looking amazing.
