Default Headlight and taillight tint

Hey guys, need some recommendations on installing taillight and headlights Tint film. I had talked to few of my installer friends, but they all state that our taillight is a lot harder to do tint film and it will eventually lift. I was wondering how the durability is on anyone that currently has them tinted or if there any other good option.

Definitely true on the rear tail lights, there are hard edges and that weird bump that makes it hard for tint to stay on.

I know you're talking about film, but spray works equally as well. Nice part is that you can control the level of tint with the amount you spray.
I did it to my TSX and lasted 5+ years without any signs of wear.
