Smoked/Tinted Tail lights

Anybody have any thoughts on smoked/tinted tail lights? Several people have posted some pics on the forum and I think it looks pretty sweet on the right color. I have a palladium silver - will it look good on that? Thoughts? Anybody got any pictures of a Palladium with the rear tail lights tinted? It would definitely help in making this decision. Thanks for all thoughts/pics!!

Tint looks good but around here the police don't like it. I've have a few friends who got pulled over for taillight tint but no problem with the window tint.

Opposite here, window tints touchy subject, especially fronts - definately not allowed on front screen. Police will enforce removal of window tints on the spot.
Lights when illuminated must show red/amber as per original design.
