The spray tint is like $30 (for the good shit) 03 tails are like over $300. Personally, I think the 03 tails look better...(I got an 01 also) just my $.02

IMO tinted tails, especially 01-02's look tacky.

03's with the bottom tinited looks good on white cars, not so good on dark cars. The clear upper stands out too much. All or nothing depending on car color
