I'm not a big fan of tinted tails, with the exception of black, but I gotta say you did a good job with yours. A nice shade - not too dark, not too light.

yes they are but if you ordered the tints only they are about 50 percent lighter than mines so you should be fine,also plan on having a heat gun handy cause you will need it to remove the finger rolls.

not if you use a heat gun to get all the finger rolls out and flatten to the surface.
