Red Laminex on '08 STi Tails - TriStateTuners.com :: Home of Tristate Auto Enthusiast

I picked up a 2008 STi at the end of May. One of the first things I had done was have Ryan and the SOG crew do a 40% tint all around. It looks great! The next thing I had to take care of was the taillights. I am not a fan of the chrome tails at all. Talking to Ryan, we decided to try the Red film from Laminex. So I ordered some up and had Ryan install it.
The results were spectacular!!!! I am so happy with how it came out.
Thanks Ryan. Thanks Damon.

Well, on to the pics.

Bone Stock

Options...Cutout or full.

All Finished, Red tails w/ cutouts and %40 tint

Im into it, looks so much better than the chrome and makes the car look more aggresive from the rear instead of blending in with the white car, the red makes it pop.... Good choice...

Yea Fred...I'm loving the look. Great choice with the Laminex too over the Oracal. Can't wait to see what's next.
