Tinting Taillights *Edit-Install and Finished Product Pics*
I'm getting ready to tint my tyc taillights this weekend and I am torn on how I should tint them. I am trying to decide on tinting the whole light or just the red and amber indicators on the top.
TYC's no tint (stole this pic from Viniati's site, dont have a working camera at the moment)
*Edit - Updated with SwtC44's much better pics
TYC's Red and Amber Indicator's Tinted
TYC's Full tint
I will have a camera and whatever I decide to do I will post pictures after the work is done. I'm also tinting the 3rd brake light and the turning lights on the side mirrors. Thanks for all the help.

Yeah, if I did the red and amber parts it would look similar to bluebat's. I'm actually using VHT NiteShades for mine. Common people vote for your choice cause its not tied and I need help deciding.

Alright, I got done with it yesterday just didnt have time to post up pics. It looks awesome in person, and I have already gotten several complements from people.
I decided to go with the half and half, and I am really glad that I did.
Install Pics:
Taped and ready to go
Stock on left
Side Mirror turning lights
3rd Brake light
On the car pics:
Side Mirrors
(with flash)
(without flash)
3rd Brake light
Taillights
(with flash)
(without flash)
Back of car - sun was setting so one half of car is in shade and one half in light
It really looks good in person, the 3rd brake light in particular looks absolutely sexy and with my lighting mod to it to light up the full distance instead of just the middle 1/3rd, it looks awesome.
Overall, I love it :D

Before I started I talked to a state trooper about it and he said that so long as the lights were visible from 500 yards that I was fine.
However, I have no idea how far my lights are visible from, I dont feel like walking a third of a mile to go look at my lights.
I havent had a cop follow me on the road yet and look at them, but I think im okay.
