it will look a lot nicer to tint the other one also. if you feel intimidated by the cops then just replace the tinted side. the worst that can happened if you do get pulled over are fix it tickets, just replace with stock and you will be fine, unless you are speeding or something like that btw, which state are you in?

you'll be fine with those in FL
FL cops don't care about anything but speeding
i see many many cars drive past cops with blacked out tails, blown headlight bulbs, not using turn signal, cutting people off, and they don't do anything about it
mine are blacked out
the other night a cop pulled out of a 7/11 and started following me. I was going exactly 30 MPH, the speed limit, and he got up real close to me and probably ran my plate. then he turned off his headlights, obviously to look at my taillights. he then changed lanes and sped off like a pissed off cop. I'm not sure but I guess the taillights isn't probable cause for him to pull me over and bitch about them?
Anyway, the law in FL is they have to visible while the brake pedal is pushed down, from 300 FT away. I went to superbrightleds.com and bought the luxeon red tail light bulb and the 168 LED bulb for the tail light running light. It cost me like $50 total for all the bulbs because the LED luxeons are really nice and expensive, but it was worth it. They're now just as bright as stock bulbs with no tint.
Also, if they bust your ***** for it, all you have to do sand the stuff off with ~300 grit, wetsand with 1000, then 2000, and polish, and you have stock tails again.
