Me? Nope, just the ones on my tahoe. Ever think about tinting your stock corners? You can go completely black with them and it would save you a little bit of money.

And yes, go darker for sure! The pic you posted looks like they're stock taillights by how red they are lol that's why I asked. Thought you might have gotten a ticket and removed them or something.

Here's after about 3 coats, not using VHT this time. I'm using Duplicolor Black out, originally for chrome but it's just like VHT. Also started playin with my old lights.. Eh...

It's up to you, it's all what you like. If it were mine id black them out completely and spray some clear on them. Id also get some clear corners. I personally don't like the stock amber corners. I like everything on my truck to match and flow together and the ugly orange corners don't go with anything if you get what im saying.

It's really amazing how different it makes your front end look when you put on clear corners.

I understand, im just letting the tint set/cure before i hit them with the clear. I might do a black and clear mix to take them down further. Want the reverse light to stay lighter than the rest of the light if you haven't noticed my tint on my windows lol. I'll look into the clear one. I may photoshop em=]

Yeah i do a black/clear mix to black out my tails. They turned out perfect, you can barely see the red in them. And i just taped off the reverse lens. Couldn't have turned out better.
