I'd like to see those tails lightly tinted, not totally murdered out.

Yeah, I completely agree. I painted them in my basement to avoid dust and the lighting was slightly poor so it was hard to tell how dark they were. It didn't seem like they were going to be that dark until I pulled the car into the sun, I was surprised I could even see light through them to be honest
