I am going to go with a lighter tint this time. The current tint I have for the tails is a little too dark for my taste, but looks great with the LCI tails at night
Id agree with you man with the lighter tint, especially with those wheels on the way

Im not a fan of blacked out light either. Especially on white cars. If you really really had to do it, just do a very light tint.
