I just tinted a couple new set of tails in addition to the dark tinted ones I already had on my car. Just wanted to see which ones you guys thought looked the best on my car. I will post the following 6 pics and tell me what you think.

okay.. i'd go with the TYC reds..since your rear has a mixture of red in it...plus your rear celica fill in flows with it nicely.

I'd slap another coat on the TYC's...when they are both on there...you can't tell they're tinted really unless you compare with a 'stock' set

I like the tinted TYCs the best.

Has anyone ever thought on an idea of taking the outer clear lense of the '05 chrome tails, and slapping it onto the '03 tailight housing? The '03 tails have a pinkish tint on the outer housing I think, which hides the inside projector-style lights from a distance. But you can see the inside lights so clear in the '05, I just don't like the chrome part. Doing what I'm saying, would give you a nice red inside and clear outer lense on the '03 tails. Which I think would look tight. Even the '03 pinkish lense sitting on the clear '05 housing might look interesting. Just a crazy idea. Does anyone know if that's possible to do?
