Tinted taillights.

So i went downtown to a Pub a few nights ago (meaning lots of cars in the parking lot) and came back in the am to pick it up because i was too drunk to drive so i called a buddy. i came to find out the one of my taillights was cracked around the turn signal area and it looked bad. So I tinted them both thinking it might look good, but I'm not sure if it looks good for a TL. what do you guys think?

What I did when I had tint on my tail lights was trim the inside of the tint out around where the lights were.


Yours looks good though.

Not a fan of tinted tails. I think a set of ghost tails or some Type-S tails would look 100x better.

I like it. I'm doing this to mine when my vinyl gets here. Cutting out the brake lights though so the frosted diffusers show through. You ever think about Debadging and blacking out the Acura emblem? I think it'd look so clean. Looks great regardless OP!

Contact AckTL05 for a custom set. I just need some extra money to make it happen.
