Mesh Tint?

[Reddirocket27]

Anyone install Anchor Room mesh tail tint on an 18+ yet? Worth the $40? Not looking for a full tint look.

I've seen it done, they call it a honeycomb pattern. I've never done it personally but here are some photos from google images. Feel free to look up some other examples. View attachment Honeycomb1.jpg

Thanks for the pics, I saw similar ones on Google too. I was hoping for first hand pics, including installation tips etc, since the full tint sounds like it's a PITA to heat up and wrap properly. I found them on eBay for $8 shipped, so I may just pull the trigger.

I remember the mesh from 80's mustangs, total throwback

wrapping any weird shaped larger surface object is going to be such a pain if you haven't done it before and don't have a real heat gun. just take it to a tint shop or vinyl wrap shop and pay them to install it. otherwise you will ruin the one you buy, then buy another one and probably ruin that too. i wasted like $100 on hood stripes for my old Mustang before just paying a tint shop to do it

Luckily, I've been doing vinyl for ten years (hairdryer is hot enough!), I'll be sure to post a pic when it's done

I was going to write and say that a hair dryer is more than enough. I did my taillights about a month ago and I had zero experience. I took my time and they came out perfect. The only issue I see is that the honeycomb tint will be more "flexible" compared to a normal vinyl that does not have all those holes. Looks very cool though! Good luck.
