Id say tint them but not too dark, and just tint the red part of the lense. Dont tint the clear area of the lense for the indicators though. If you are gonna tint the tail lights, id also tint the side indicators/repeaters

im not a big fan of tinting, but if you do it the way kwikxr has explained, that would look ok.

And yep thats what i meant by tinting the red part only, i dunno, to me tinting the clear part where the indicator is would look a bit too overboard if you get what i mean

tinting tailights this weekend hopefully...all depends if i get the roadyworthy this week or not.
going to tint the side repeaters to see how they look...depending on how they look i might get the clear ones. might also attack the power steering cover properly this time.
