Default Anybody Nightshade the rear side markers on their Camaro?

I'm debating doing them on my SS. I'm just thinking it will make the back look better without that red in the middle of nowhere. Anyone have pics?

I did the rear sides and front markers.... Not TOO big on the overall look, but it does darken them a bit.. I'm gonna replace my VHT'd ftont corners w/ clears soon.

Thanks, but I'm adding smoked corners to go with the new headlamps. I want smoked rear markers so it blends in. The clear would stick out more then the red.
