Tint the sidemarkers?

Tint the sidemarkers?
So my car is going in to get tinted on Tuesday and everyone has been telling me to get clear corners for my car... well I dont really like the look of the clear corners but I have been thinking about getting just the side markers tinted while its in there. I'm just worried it wont look good if the headlights and tail lights aren't tinted. Anyone have any advice/pics of this?

I just used a spray on tint and put it right over the ambers. It blends in perfectly with the body, you cant really even tell they are there. it even passes inspection!
Bad picture but you might be able to get a slight idea...
Its the only pic I got on me.

I'll snap some pics when I get my car back. I have the Lamin-X gunsmoke on my headlights, had a free leftover sheet from struggling with the taillight templates (they don't work well), and decided to see how it looked on the clears. Came out fairly well.

Are you guys doing the tint yourselves or getting it done by someone else? I really like the look to your car, snipaz. Those tinted corners really set it off. I plan to get black rims here soon and want to do the same to my corners. Could you tell me how you did them?

So if I use vinyl or something I won't need a heat gun or something like that? My friends dad does window tint and could probably just give me some tint for free. That would work right??
