Mine were tinted w/ a static cling tint I decided to take it off for the winter and will reinstall it in the summer...that way I'm not always looking at the same car! I am not a fan of nightshade unless you have another set of tails laying around...If you go to dark and get pulled over there is no turning back or your out the money to get a new set of tails...so thas why I went w/ the static cling!
