It's a nice touch

Any pics with the lights underneath on? So we can see exactly how dimmed they become?

Sorry no before and after pictures but I just tinted the clear part of the taillights. I used left over window tint (forgot the brand) at 20%. The tint have barely any effect on the signal lights. But i'll post some more up later.
