Soldier and AZN -

did you guys spray your tail lights or is it a film tint for the taillights?

Im thinking of tinting mine with the Lamin-x film IF they dont offer full LED's for 2010

I painted my taillights, i dont disagree with anyone that tints them either. You cant go wrong with either method just depends what your looking for. I wanted a almost full black 1% transparency, so i had to paint them.

Painted. It just looks better. I've seen Lamin-X...it's alright, nothing wrong, but you don't have film edges with paint.
