Not my style, but I love that you were brave enough to give it a try.

Man you've got a negative comment from everyone. If you like it than that's all that matters.

I think it would look better if you go back and instead of having that clear strip straight across the middle of the tailight (exposing the bulbs), break it up into 3 small circles and fill in the rest. Just a thought.

Makes the tails look cheap. Like something you'd buy off the shelf at Autozone .

ok...time to rename it the "how can I diss these" thread...damn. For whoever asked the brakes look the same at night...the red brake bulb is just clearcoated. If anybody else is interested in having their rear tails tinted and then hated on check out tintedtails.com

haha don't take it personally. there are 12-15 of those people on this site that think it is fun to put down others. most of us on the site tend to post what they like about certain things. other people tend to say what is exactly on their mind which can be hurtful.

i didn't say anything bad, and you still have my respect! and yeah, don't take it personally, people just express themselves more. think of it as constructive criticism and move on. its your car and do what you must, but we (the club) will always express ourselves and our opinions. just man up!

^very true.

A few of those lines look a little wavy, is that on purpose or is it just the pics? would be interested in seeing how they look at night. Interesting though, good idea trying to change them instead of just smoking them
