Opinion needed for smoked taillights
I bought a film to smoke the taillights. I plan on having them professionally sprayed when I figure out what I want do to.
First picture is the lights as is. Second and third picture is with the tint applied. It is a fairly light tint. On the left side I tinted the entire light. On the right side I cut out the reverse lights. I got the idea from another forum user (his car is the fourth picture). I thought it looked fantastic on the white X5M with everything else blacked out. Since I left the side LED light white I thought I might look OK. Thoughts?

I like the third pic the best! On the white car, the tint is obviously a lot darker and the white stripe (reverse light) actually looks good.
In your case I think the whole light tinted looks best, unless you also go with a darker tint!

The white car is amazing. With the tint that light, I would do the entire light.

I leave in a country where ALL BLACK can be a disadvantage to the driver and passengers at night... accidentwise. Putting your truck 98% ALL BLACK including reflectors! is like signing your own Will! I aint scaring but parts of a vehicle needs natural reflecting here and there be it rims, grille or something but where one need to black out everything including reverse light... c'mon guys!Those are great machines guys I agree but too much of everything really start removing the pedigree of the truck. I just dont subscribe to ALL BLACK truck like New Zealand rugby team, its a health hazard to the car occupants. Tinted or sprayed reflectors really does reduces reaction time for another driver when parked or having breakdown or something on highway. Anyway, we all have different tastes... some like big mamas some like slender girls, bottom line we all get laid oneway or another...

The clear section looks good and is needed for the reverse lights, not sure why you'd want to tint it.

I think the white truck looks great with the red lenses blacked out. I think the darker color trucks look great just the opposite as I like the contrast with the red lenses. Good thing we all dont feel the same and have the same tastes or everyone would have identical trucks. How boring would that be
