I'd say 50%. It's a nice change in my opinion from the stock color. I have an 06 mustang and went with the 50% cause the stock were just too friggin red. They stood out a bit too much. With 50% you dull that out a bit and draw more attention to the car, rather than the lights, but you can still alert drivers around you that you're stopping (even in daytime). Also, cops are much more likely to pull you over with blackouts cause they are considered illegal in some states... and in states where they aren't police just use them as a good reason for pulling you over. Don't need to give them more reason to nab us. If I get a chance tonight, I'll see if I can post a before and after shot to give you an idea of the difference from stock to 50%.

50%. Ebay has them for 20-30 bucks and they are removable.

If you do taillight tint and have bumper lettering that isnt black, please take the lettering off and get black. I Love the tail light tint, but if your bumper lettering is a different color, I think it throws it off. just my .02

ORIGINAL: OnyxCobra

that looks so sick dude, how'd u do that? I was thinkin somethin like that might look badass on my black car... share the info!!
I picked mine up on ebay for around $20 bucks, but I am thinking about doing what jonbeast said and getting a big sheet and doing it myself... Because the ones I have just don't quite cover the whole taillight...
