Messed up my tint! Pics

I went out and tried to place tint on my taillights a few weeks ago and probably did the worst job ever...I've been dismissing it but now I want it off...can I jus peel it off or will that give me a problem?

Peel it off no worries. Where did you get your tint?

Wow, don't mean to give you a hard time but like you said you either messed up bad or that's some really crappy vinyl tint.

Bigworm graphics is the best place. His tint is pretty thick and easy to work with. I went the thin cheap stuff before and it sucked!

I have a set of these coming that should be in my mailbox when I get home from work today. It was 8 degrees here this morning and even in my garage it is damn cold so I may have to wait until it warms up at least some to apply them.

I used to have these. I got pulled over for them once, but was let go with a warning because of the tiny holes in them. Trooper said he'd never seen any like them. I have since changed to a vinyl and have them lying around now, lol.

I got my tail light tint on eBay, worst case scenario and it crumbles and wrinkles, just peel off and blow dry to go back into shape
