I just got my tail lights tinted, it looks pretty good in my opinion. head lights are a bit more dangerous because well you need them to see. I might be getting them tinted soon but not as dark as the tail lights if I do. And its illegal to tint tail or headlights, so keep that in mind. Although cops won't usually bother you if its not insanely dark

I forgot to mention, but at night... I can't see crap with the stock headlights. I have a HID kit coming. But if you do plan to go for the headlights about 35%. you are going to need some sort of a HID headlight kit. And I would recommend to have the kit before you tint the headlights.

The brightness of the break lights look fine with 35% on it.

I got a 10K Kit and it look a little better than before I tinted with the stock headlights.

I have the nice HID look + of course it has the nice blue light and you can see better overall.

Keep in mind though that HIDs will flicker with the daytime lights unless your kit comes with a relay or you do some custom fixes.
