Looks good on a Black car. I don't know if I like it on a silver car though, I really need to see it in person.

That looks great on both cars. I did that on my Denali and I love it. It looks 1000x better than those Altezza type lights you see. There's no faster way to make a car/truck look cheap than by throwing Altezza's on them.

Jimmy - how did you not tint the clear backup lights? Did you just tape it off? If so how does it look close up?

I wouldn't do it. This looks very special and still very classy on the car. I like it a lot!

O.K., I'll be the one to say it. Though I like it's looks, I don't think the safety issue is worth the risk. Surely the brake light is not as bright after the paint job?! (Hey, but if you like it...to each his own.)
