It looks pretty good, the taillight seems to be a little darker on tungsten pearl since its a lighter car, he tried it on my car when i went to get my clear bra put on.

I actually worked with Francisco about 2 weeks ago to get the initial fitment of the rear tail light overlays. It took most of the day to just make sure he could get it on right. Anyway, here's a picture of mine, I took after the install. They do look great in person.

Thanks, that does look good.

Question #2
with the overlays, does the orange part of the tail light stay orangish or will it look red like the rest of it?

I have the red outs under the smoke outs =) So it's red under.

Actually, when the tail lights are on at night, the difference is hardly noticeable since we have LED tail lights.

So cops probably wouldn't pull me over at night for having those right? I'm just wondering since cops where I live are bored and like to give tickets.

IMO, you're more likely to get pulled over during the day since they can actually see that your tail lights are smoked.. but i haven't had any problems for the last couple weeks.

i have the red outs right now too...but if i get the smoked out taillights i was thinking of removing the red outs since the orange won't be noticeable under the tinted film....is that true???
