Yeah its the 3rd pic. Against the sun. I tried to put this where the sun do shine! I did this to put it to the test with the southern ATL sun shining bright (not directly but) towards the tails with the brakes applied.

LOL!! I think it would look totally awesome on your car of that color!
Hey in my opinion,...I think tinted tails look good on white/silver & black cars only! Sometimes Red looks superb too though!

I have these done on my white LTZ. They look damn good. I also live in Illinois and when I got pulled over for speeding (warning). They didn't say anything about the taillights. Hell I even got a nice car from the cop. But they are dicks about loud exhaust and the tint ticket is there fav.

Illinois is bad.

It depends ALOT of what mood the police officers are in that day / days.

I've been ticketed for a smoked license plate cover.

It looks nice but I have never understood why you want to make it harder for someone to see your brakelights!
