I like it. I would have not gone quite as dark but it looks good still. I think you should def do the other lights too. As long as the lights still reflect light and can be seen when on its not illegal. (from what ive heard)

no other votes......

well i did just get back in from sanding off all the old tint........ i just figure thier might have been alittle wax or something left on the lenses which gave it that fisheye/ornage peel look. so this weekend i guess im gonna lightly sand them again before i spray them to be sure that they are REALY CLEAN! and ill spray them inside my garage outta the wind this time also.
good thing i bought 2 cans. LMFAO
but i guess im gonna retint them but only half tint like this

desided not to do the black/clear euros again... just been thinking about its crapy looken clear/white part sticken out just as bad......
and it would also show the factory tail lights looks and shine thru at day/night great.

RE: Attempting to tint tail lights. does this look good or no?

well attempted again today. TOTAL DOG CRAP!
just wont lay down smooth and flat!

so i guess this has been a total waist of 3 afternoons of my life!
so now i have to sand them down AGAIN and then start polishing them back to original look

VERY DISAPOINTED!
just no matter how smooth and clean i got these lenses they just wouldnt lay down smooth paint!
im so pissed right now!
guess if i want black tails ill have to buy those euro black/clear tails after all
