Where Can You Go To Get LAMIN-X Professionally Installed On My Headlights & Tailight?

SkyeHack · 05-23-2006, 11:41 AM

I just wasted 100 dollars using lamin-x to smoke my headlights and tailights. I eithier stretched it out too much or scratched it or it just plain didn't stick or look good at all. I suck! Can a local tint shop do this? I just wasted all 4 pieces. Any help will be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!

I feel for you, I spent a few hours putting mine on with help from a friend, they look ok but i should have gone and gotten this done properly. You can not tell we did this in the back yard but it could have been done better. Good luck on your search.

A good tint shop would probably be your best bet, just call around and ask if they will do it for you. I suggest calling Lamin-x and tell them what happened and maybe they will replace it for you.

Wow I didnt know a shop can do it for me. I might get it done professinaly too. If my back didnt run then I wouldnt be redoing them but Iam going to have too so my car can be perfect.

By my suggestion of the lamenex didnt work try the spray like I did. My front came out great but the back ran, If I had put more time into it and didnt rush it let each coat dry longer then it would turn out awsome.
