Nice.

And you can have both.

Just get the clear ones, and tint the red part only not the turning signal.

A lot of ppl do that around here.

I really like my smoked ones, the tint is JUST dark enough that it mimic's my Silber Grau pretty well so they look color eyed to my car

I just received my replacement tail lights yesterday. Both have the rubber gaskets Before I return the one set, I thought people might be interested in seeing a clear light next to a tinted light. Just personal opinion, but I like the red rods of the tail light better on the tinted, but like the top LED part of the tail light better on the clear. Oh well, can't have both. Also, the top LED part of the tinted tail light is not as light or visable as it appears in the photo. Another reason I need to get a good camera.

Tinted light on top, Clear light on bottom in this photo.

My first set, the tinted ones, were missing one gasket. They weren't willing to send me just the gasket, only an entire replacement, of which they only had clear in stock. I was originally going to take the gasket off one of the clear ones (the gaskets still have paper on the back of them and haven't been affixed to tail light) and put it on the tinted one that was missing the gasket. Kind of glad I got the whole set, because I think I am going to keep the clear ones and send the tinted back.

I also think it was pretty nice that Stephen sent me the replacements and trusted me enough to send the others back, which I definitely will do within the next couple days.
