I tinted my taillights with a smoked tint using the more permanent stuff. I then put the slotted taillight covers over that. I have the honeycomb rear panel on it, so it gives it a real blacked out look on the rear.

I do not have any pics on my work computer, so i cannot so you what it looks like.

i have used tint before on the rear with less than desirable look...bubbles, sand, or any embossed lettering or imperfection on the light will FK it all up....
