Mild Tint on Tail-lights
What do you all think about a mild tint to the rear tail lights, especially with blacklines on a black car? I don't mean ricer level, but something like a 50% tint?

would like to see how it turns out... not sure if its good or bad though... i mean if you totally blacked out a lighter colored car... such as apline white with 5% on the windows, tinted tails, and some black wheels i'd be screaminn balllllin!!

Are you thinking of tinting the entire Blackline or just the upper half (the lighter portion)?

tissot... thats real goood Photoshop skills
i think that looks okay... i mean if i personally was gonnna black out my blacklines, i would do mild tint on the top portion, and make the bottom portion a bit more darker, so it looks like there smoked, i dont know if yall got that, but lol someone needs to try it |

I like Not Ur Avg 3's idea to keep the white part of the blackline somewhat white, and only tint the red part. i think that would look pretty sick.

Will tint on the outside wear under weather??? Also Won't people see the film? I might be a pioneer. Depends on how much I like my blacklines when I install them today.
