Amber Foglight Mod Using Lamin-X Film

[T_Bond@Hawaii]

I put the TWraps yellow on my R1T and am wondering if I added the amber over the top if it would be close to Rivian Yellow. . . ?

Seems the Rivian Yellow is a bit orange. Thoughts?

Might be worth trying. The downside, though would be the additional light blocking of having two films on it.

Understand how filters work on light and you’ll immediately realize what a terrible idea that would be.

Getting the trwaps ppf off was a task for sure, but it was very cold when I did the work. Don't scrape then off, as the foglight lenses are polycarbonate and will scratch (coffee prior to the process would have avoided this painful mistake on my part) bit a clean install of the orange, looks really good. I wouldn't recommend doubling the two up.

@twraps any chance you'd offer a similar orange film to the Lamin?

Coffee solves (or sometimes creates) all problems!

Curious - did you use a heat gun?

Heat gun or hair dryer would be your best bet, but be mindful of all the plastic etc in the area.

I scrolled down looking for this comment. Yes, it would be cool to have this in Rivian yellow to match my compass sticker on my bumper...

Your bumper is spotless....the entire front-end is spotless! Back to our regularly scheduled thread....

We probably will at some point, but not high on my priority list as I'd need to test a bunch of new materials first and I've been pretty busy working on a satin wrap (with edge wrapping) for the R1S

I also ordered the Twraps fog light tint, and the difference in yellow shading between the lights and my tow hook covers is really bothering me. Anyone have any suggestions in where I can order a roll of light film with a custom color? Maybe I'll borrow colorimeter and get the hex code of the tow hook covers and use that to order a roll of film?

If you go to that much trouble to color match, I'll split the roll with you.

Ha! Find me a place that takes color matched orders and I'll just send you half the roll!

Just noting that the amber from the original post matches the little light over the front wheel well. I think it looks really good actually. Especially on green, but other colors too.
