Who's tinted their top brake light?

Who has done what for tinting their vert-specific brake light?

Well, since my car is red - no. I think tinting would only make it more noticeable.

I'd consider tinting or smoking the brake light with a black, gray, silver, white, yellow, orange, or green car. RJT or VR.....leave it red.

I had all mine done. It looks great! All lights & windows are tinted except the Headlights and the fog lights. I can post the pictures Tuesday. It was a member here that did it for me and he sells the tint to DIY..he even has videos showing how to DIY. I am not sure if I can post his name or company here.

You may not want to tint too dark - I almost hit the back end of a black Mitsubishi Galant this morning who had "really cool" smoke color tail/brake light lenses. So dark I couldn't see the brake lights at first. Would have been my fault - but really? Good I'll never know.

I have it tinted along with the tail lights. Sorry this isn't a great pic. I can't get any pics for a couple more days. Back in the paint shop for a few final things. I think that the LEDs are still plenty bright.

You can't tell that there is tint on the brake lights when they are pressed.

Excellent S.S. Great that the lights can be seen bright when on.
