His shop is in Riverside. He is well known to the Tahoe/Denali people as well as the Range Rover people. He does a good job, and has many many international customers as well.

Ask for Jeff. He is the store owner, and is the person we deal with. Tell him someone form the Tahoe Forum gave you his info.

If you get it done, please post some pictures.

I personally prefer the lighter color. This looks better on black rides. Do you know anybody closer to LA area than riverside?

If you have the time and patience you can get the same results doing it yourself. You just have to pull all the lights and do them at the same time - get some old crappy red lens and practice - Several light coats look great and they buff up very nicely. I didn't know if I would like they way they turned out on my X, but I love them. Try it!

No sorry, He's the only person I know of that does a good job, and that I have used. I think he has a shop in Irvine as well if I remember correctly. Call him, and if not maybe he will come to you.

This is definitely making it to my Mod list next to removing the egg yolk reflectors... For some reason, tinting the rear lights seems so clean...

I know this will good on my silver metallic E70. Thanks to everyone for all the info! :thumbup:

Sorry this took so long.....I'm a computer retard. This is my 2004 4.4 with tinted rear lights utilizing the Japanese spray product. The car is filthy I know, but I feel the results came out very nice. They are evenly tinted, and meet all NYS DOT specks for light distribution. They took one day to do and I like 'em with the grey E53.
