The stock HSV tinted rear looks great IMHO.

Nah, don't tint them. That just gives you one more thing to stress about when a TMU pulls up next to you and your mates in the carpark and starts inspecting things. It's always good to know you're 110% street legal. TMU rocks up, I don't even think twice, because I know there isn't a defectable item on my car.

Oh, looks wise... it's alright. Makes them look a bit dull though. Those tints aren't as glossy as you'd like.

tinted vn lights do look good, but just the red of the car, and the nice red of the brake lenses looks real good together
