ebay smoked tails FTMFW ?

after 3 years of red/clears i got bored and decided to try these. originally i was expecting them to be much lighter and they came out too dark for my taste....i guess ill get used to it. opinions?

comparions pic



finished product.........



sure as hell not spending another 2 hours to put the red/clears back....

in a way it goes really well with sterling mist, tinted windows and AE heads with smoked corners !

very nice man.....like JSMax said, ties in everything together. Looks beautiful with the sterling mist. Very nice, and just a little something to break away from the enormous red/clear (unsmoked) crowd. Keep em

the red/clears looked much better, they took out the look of the rear end. now u cant even notice the red. but if u like it then its all good.

I think it would look better if you had the silver/gunmetal theme about the car (gunmetal/anthracite-colored wheels, CF hood, etc).

They look good. I wish I could tint my tails. Back home in NY i'd get pulled over as soon as a cop looks at my car. I think down here in FL you can tint your tails but you have to be able to see the lights clearly from a certain distance.
