Default Tinted taillights and headlights - too much?

Self explanatory, what do you guys think? Too dark, or am I good to go? I don't want to get pulled over for them being too dark. The lighting makes the shading look different, but I swear they actually match.

Before and after


headlights (not real worried about it)



tail lights/reverse lights

Yeah. It looks great. I don't think you are going to have any trouble.

I see. Well that answers my question. I'm digging the red and black on the outside, and I love the interior too. Job very well done.

What kind of tape did you use? That looks like packing tape lol.

Needs to be buffed, looks very dull.

Yep it was packing tape lol, twas all I had. Worked just fine. I haven't buffed it yet because it still has an hour or so left to fully dry, but I think I might wait til tomorrow to do it.

What sort of products are best to use for that? I'm not certain the stuff I have will work optimally.

Yep, I don't plan on switching to a GA plate for a while. Where are you at? I heard there was some snow up there a few weeks ago still.
