I would PM Punks_Not_Dead5 (can't remember exactly how his TN name is spelled), he's gotten his tails tinted and knows a lot about it, more than I do.

I personally don't but I'm sure there's someone on the site who does. I almost got mine tinted once, couldn't do it at the last minute though. Kind of a long story.

I would go with a static cling tint for them, just incase you have a run in with with Johnny Law, and it will save you from having to buy new tails when its inspection time as it will not pass. at least thats here in TX and i know a bunch of inspectors here in town.

Those look nice! I've been on the fence on whether I should leave the strip or not. The strip is where the brake lights are, so only the turn signals are weaker due to the tint. Solid doesn't look shabby either..

I just bought brighter bulbs and it turned out fine....the turn signals anyway aren't that great especially with the LED brake lights which are bright!

No Question. Tinted, blacked out or smoked looks nice. BUT, I would go to a local PA garage that does state inspections and get an idea if what you want will pass state law. They will have a good idea. You don't pass the law and you could be held liable for any one rear ending you, and your insurance could be void.

Better safe than sorry

Happy driving.
