The tinted tails look pretty good . How does it affect the visibility of the lights?

Not a fan of the green insides, but to each his own.

If you look in the install pic you can see that it is film.

IMO just get Inspires.

I had the turn signals tinted ala MBZ style, but Ken ripped them off since we were going to rebuild one of my tails. I'm debating full LED tails, but the main problem with that is I don't really like the dots. I'll probably set them far into the tail and leave the diffuser panel.

~Cheers~

^ That's you. Should've went to Cec's place for the final BBQ tonight. Clearing out all the furniture and stuff. I got a sick ass gold ashtray/cigarette/lighter holder. Antique Japanese with a phoenix on the upper portion of the face and a dragon on the lower.

~Cheers~

tail lights are too dark, not very safe either.. Engine bay is really up to your taste, if you like it... then it's all good.
