Tinted for sure. It'll work with your wheels.

Tint them if you are going to do them right, otherwise stock IMO. By do it right I mean spray them with a quality urethane clear then cut and buff like normal paint. I think that is how Peterg did his. All of the best looking tinted tails were done this way.

B2, I COULD have done my tails that way, but you'd be hard-pressed to tell the difference and most members don't have the time, money, resources, or tools to do that.

Following the guide in Techinfo, or the numerous topics posted on the Forum will lead the vast majority of members to satisfaction on a budget.
