Tail Light Film? smoked vs gunsmoke

i was looking into ordering the tail light tint from **********s and i was wondering if anyone had pics of the 2 different colors. i was also wondering if film was the best way to go. are there any other options from different vendors??

Yep, I say light smoke.....maybe a little darker than the picture above but nowhere near as dark as the bottom pics. That's just asking to be pulled over.

Still pretty nice lookin' though....depends on the car and your taste.

A lot of these have the nasty tabs on the side that you have to cut. Is there a film that will wrap the entire light so it can look clean?

You can see the edges of the film though right? I have seen one locally and it looked very cheap when you got up close.
