There you go, bring her along, best of both worlds.

japanese tint brands > night shades

or even better, get some vinyl overlays, that way you can reverse the effect if you get tired of it.

i would i never thought of that. i think the tail lights look good with the turn signals/ back up lights tinted and the rest left red

i was thinkin about doin this too, im probably gunna just get the overlays at an autoparts store... has anyone had any success with this? and is it difficult to do myself? or atleast to do it and make it not look like s***.

If you aren't sure how dark to go, use nightshades. Put on 2 or 3 light coats, let it dry/cure. Then drive for a few days with them. If you want it darker, add more. Just know that in direct sunlight they are going to be hardest for people to see.
