Default camaro taillight tint idea

so i want to tint my taillights and headlights with couple coats of the black out spray.
for the taillights i was thinking about lightly shading them and leaving the reverse white part as is.

anyone have pics of that done??

if you got pics of your tailights shaded (not blacked out all the way) than post them
thanks

get LT1's. they look soo much better. i dont see why they changed them in 98. the lines worked better with the car than the 98+

i dont have any pics to help you... since i blacked it out, and not just a slight smoke.

I always figured if they were blacked out, it wouldn't matter. The people who are going to see them are directly behind you...other than that, they should look identical. Right?
