Wow, nice work. I just googled knifeless tape, I didn't know it existed. What width did you use and did you use a different wider width for the corners? Can you post a close up pic of the tape on the lens?
We're the lamin-x pre-cut sheets overlays that would've covered the entire taillight?? And you used the knife less tape to cut out the centers??

Like the other person who posted I was not aware that knife less tape existed but a couple YouTube videos educated me and I can see how that would be essential in doing that project.

I think your idea is an excellent way to make the existing headlights on pre-LCI cars look a little more sporty and updated without doing a full-blown LCI retrofit

I'm going to look around and see if I can find a local shop that would be willing to do that before I would attempt it myself!

I'm curious how that idea would look with vinyl like you did it compared to a tint that has some translucent to it ??
