Default newly tinted tails (with all working tail and backup lights)

after seeing 1337ssei'* tinted tails, i had to do mine. so i did. i think they look pretty good. the corner lights have a few bubbles but the middle is sweet. but, the clear coat doesnt look as glossy as i thought it would be. o well.

looks good but I think you may need to find brighter bulbs. I question the saftey of the back half of your car.
