Smoked Vinyl by East Coast Pride Wraps
Subtle Style, Maximum Impact
Tired of chrome-bright headlights or bright red taillights ruining the flow of your vehicle's look? Headlight and taillight tinting gives your ride a darker, sleeker aesthetic without compromising visibility or safety. At East Coast Pride Wraps, we offer premium smoked vinyl wraps for vehicle lights, installed with precision right here in Columbia SC.
Whether you want a stealth appearance, a subtle darkening, or full blackout-style wrap, our vinyl tint films are the perfect solution. Installed professionally in a clean, indoor space, our tinting service upgrades your vehicle’s style while preserving factory integrity.
What Is Vinyl Light Tinting?
Light tinting involves applying a specially designed, translucent vinyl film to your headlights or taillights. Unlike paint or sprays, this method is non-permanent, fully removable, and won't damage lenses or reduce light output when applied correctly.
Benefits of Smoked Light Wraps
Darken lights for a sleek, custom look
Non-destructive and fully reversible
Protects lenses from scratches, UV rays, and cracking
Customizable tint levels and finishes
Applied cleanly without bubbling or residue
Safe for street use (within legal visibility guidelines)
Our vinyl light wraps are ideal for drivers who want to match their lights to blackout builds, chrome deletes, or full vehicle wraps.
Finish Options for Tinted Lights
We offer a variety of shades and finishes to match your vehicle’s style. Whether you're going for clean and subtle or aggressive and bold, there's a tint that fits your build.

What Lights Can Be Wrapped?
We offer headlight and taillight tinting for most vehicle types, including:
Headlight Tinting
Front lights, fog lights, DRLs (daytime running lights), and corner lights can all be tinted with precision-cut vinyl. We apply tint in full overlays or as partial accents.
Taillight Tinting
Full rear lenses, brake lights, turn signals, and rear reflectors can be wrapped in smoke vinyl. Great for trucks, sedans, sports cars, and SUVs.
Third Brake Lights & Accent Lights
We can tint smaller components like third brake lights and lower reflectors for a complete blackout effect or matching finish.
Vehicles We Tint
From sports cars to SUVs and lifted trucks, we apply vinyl tint wraps to all kinds of vehicles. Our light tinting is especially popular with:
Performance cars (Mustang, Charger, Camaro, WRX)
Custom trucks with chrome delete or blackout packages
Luxury vehicles (BMW, Audi, Lexus, Mercedes)
Show vehicles and tuned daily drivers
Motorcycles and slingshots (select lighting components)
All installs are done by hand using heat-forming tools and soft squeegees to preserve lens clarity and prevent bubbling.
Our Tinting Process
As with all vinyl services, we install your headlight or taillight tint in a controlled, indoor workspace for a clean, long-lasting result.
Step-by-Step Tinting Process
01. Consultation
Choose shade, finish, and coverage level
02. Prep and Clean
Lenses are fully cleaned and inspected
03. Vinyl Application
Tint is heat-formed to the lens using edge-safe tools.
04. Edge Seal and Inspection
Corners and curves are sealed to prevent peeling
05. Cure Time & Aftercare
We recommend a short cure time before washing and provide care instructions
Legal Considerations for Light Tinting
We understand the importance of maintaining street legality. While vinyl light wraps are removable and non-permanent, we always ensure:
Blue to Red
Proper light output remains after installation
Brake and turn signals remain visible
You are informed of state-specific tint guidelines
If you have questions about what’s allowed in South Carolina or in your area, we’ll walk you through compliant options.
