Looks good, a bit too dark for T-red, but it still works!
Also, you'd be surprised at how well niteshades still lets light through. Though you still dont want to go too crazy, it doesnt block much light at all. In fact, I noticed little to no difference in output with mine.

I rule  
Mark, they look great. I'm glad you let me do them darker like i wanted....when you had my tinted tails on the car that day it just didn't quite look right, wrong two shades of red IMO, but this, this is a thing of beauty.

TInted tails would look good on silver or black. It looks weird on the T-Red.

I've had them done on my t-red SVT for a long while... I just never posted. I also have mine that dark as well and the lights/brake lights show up very very well. I was a little worried it was going to be to dark so I bought a second set just in case I screwed mine up.

I think it would make an amazing difference if you at least had your windows tinted too. I think it looks kinda funny being the only tinted part of the car.
DO IT.

Sorry man but I am with Stazi on this one; the whole idea of tinting is a more blending (as on black) or less tacky "standing out" (as on silver); in this case, however, the tinted tails are kinda sticking out... Just my 2 cents.
