This is the exact reason I prefer the tint.

Got the whole taillight tinted at a shop. What the guy did was cut a slit where the bulge is. Here is how mine turned out.

I've done both. I filmed and sprayed my E60 lights. Depends on the look you're going for. If you do the whole light, spray 'em. Film sucks for the whole light. If you just do the clear section, film 'em.
