Tail Light Tint Opinions
I personally love the dark cherry look of tinted tail lights and was wondering what other board members thought about tinting the tail lights, its seems like an easy process and cost effective as well.
I spoke to the sales rep and he told me there is no difference in light output with the regular tinted color as compared to factory light output. My intent is just to take the bright red edge off of the tail lights for something more subtle.
Any thoughts on this?

if you absolutely must have it, do not go much darker than they are now.

I'm not a fan of tinted tails but lamin-x is a good product that I have used before. It's very difficult to install despite hearing otherwise on the internet and from the company themselves.
To get 0 bubbles and for it to line up perfectly is no easy task. I did my headlights in tint and yellow for temporary fun.

Yea, I've been kicking around the idea and haven't pulled the trigger yet.
I have not seen to many or any yet with really dark tails- If I where to do it I would only do the very first level called simply "Tint"

Did you use universal or Pre- cut tint?
