Too dark for my liking. If your car wasn't black I'd say go ahead with it but I think that'* just too much black.

I like them stock as well. It is difficult to like this on dark cars. I was going to do it to mine. I am second guessing it because of the color.

i was playing with it all day today
i had few pieces of tint at home and i tried to put them on to see what it would look like, it looks soo good! lol but seems like im the only one that digs it lol

Only tint the red, leave the "clear" parts clear
