Tails look good. I would just lose that licensce plate frame. Why advertise for other people for free. Get a straight black frame so it doesn't take away from the back of your car.

looks ok. I think what wouldve been better is if you tinted everything but the very bottom, leaving the reverse light and signal light free of tint. I've seen it before and if I didn't have depo tails I wouldve done that.

i got rid of the frame already haha, and i thought about just tinting the top but it was a hassle just to tint the whole thing, and the main reason why i tinted was to hide the chrome, i hate chrome haha

I like it. looks real good.

I seen a g35. black rims. complete black tint all the way around. black tint head and taillights. it looked so cool, like a black bullet. that made me start liking that look.

I like it. makes the car look clean and slightly more agressive at the same time.

you know, if you can spare like $150 or save up $150 then you can get the depo black housing taillights and they make the car look soooo much better. Much like the stock evo 9 tail lights, lol. but as i mentioned earlier, what I think would look better if you want to go for tinting your tails is like 5% tint but leave the reverse light and signal light untouched.
