Welcome mate :D Always nice to have a member from a distant shore join out ranks 8)

Out of interest, what do you think of the quality of the Lamin-X tail light tint? - Looks to be pretty easy to fit compared to other brands etc. Which colour (Smoked, gun smoke, etc) did you land up going with?

I thought they were very good quality, on the car for well over a year now and no issues with them, i went for the lighter of the tints, so 80% of light can still pass through, they vinyl is quite thick so advisable to use a heat source to help it become more flexible for better fitment

I'm sure you could get your panelbeater or repair shop to colour match it at the same time as getting the rest of the car repaired.
