Mine are smoked from LaminX.

I had put the charcoal on my GTI but they were black, would probably match the color of the car.

I use to have taillight tints on my MDX that were smoked, but inevitably had to remove them because when it was sunny out and typically morning and evening when the sun was rising and setting no one could see my brake lights and I was almost hit on several occasions. So, my tip would be don't waste your time and money, but they do look decent on black. Here's what they looked like on my MDX (before I sold the MDX for the TSX):



And I had the front signals done too:

BTW, I removed mine too for the same reasons but I kept my front corners done.

if tint is too dark and you cant see your lights, make you should try cutting out the circles.

Honestly, if you take off the wing and maybe make the car a different color, the cut out holes wouldn't look too bad! Just my opinion though....

Wow... This TSX is ugly as sin. Honestly, who the heck buys a TSX and are willing to do this to it? That spoiler does not belong there...neither does that red honda badge.

Silly noobs.

If you actually saw the rest of the pictures of that owners car you'd respect it for what it was. It'll be much better than whatever you make up for.

I just don't understand the attraction of increasing your lawsuit odds if you get into an accident where someone rear-ends your car.
