the tint is 20%, which i think is illegal anyways. if i were to keep it, i would def. need some silver turn bulbs, and a drop/rims. it looks a lot more aggressive though, i might keep it for a day or two. and the tint job is horrible because i spent about 15 minutes on it.

i dont know the law in Delaware but over here in Illinois if u could see the brake light 100ft away in clear weather its legal. i try to learn the law before i do something stupid. should have tinted the whole light. i got an ssm and tinted the whole tail light black dark black and u could still see the brake light perfectly and i like it.

if i were to tint my tail lights, i would do them with like.. 80% or 70%.. just to get it a tad darker but still have that red.

it'll work no doubt, it just depends if you like the look...
the murdered out look, imo is overrated. i don't like it personally but its one of the looks that will work well on a black car.
i personally would tint the white part very lightly. some cars have the white portion tinted from stock (example honda element). try to imitate it, photoshop it if you like...
i personally want to use tailight tint to tint the whole thing very very very lightly about 80% (allows 80% of light)

Man your crazy, those white and red tails dont deserve to be painted or blurred, i once made my tops red, but missed the stock luxary look , that white and red just gives our car that luxary look compared to the 99 lights. Take off the Tints and watch the sexyness of those tails.

ya, i rocked a tint like that for a while. i bought the ebay tints for the tl tho, i think it was 20% anyway, i took it off after a few months. my car isnt dropped or debadged yet, so i didnt really like the look too much. it actually looked just like yours, i think you can see it on my avatar pic. anyway, these days, i love the red more i think
