Tinting of tail lights..
I've got a 96 so the tail-lights are connected( i personally don't like it ) so im gonna tint 'em. Any suggestions on what to tint and what not to..or etc..

I tinted mine and I did all of the light except the backup lenses. It actually looks real nice with the white lenses showing. Even though you have the newer style lights I think it would look ok with either the backuplights exposed or covered. The only thing I would worry about is how bright the backup lights are.

Well, SSEi95 is in MN, and his are tinted the same way as mine. The SSEi taillights are already darker than the SE, so I don't know if anyone would ever really notice or care. Just use the lame excuse that you thought they were stock! With the spray on tint, you can control how dark they get. It'* entirely up to your own preference. When you get closer to doing it, let us know for some last minute pointers. I've done 2 Bonnevilles now, Deathrat is about to do his second (same car twice), SSEi95 has done it, and a couple others now. There'* a couple tricks, but it'* really easy.

I just had a slight inspiration of an idea... Instead of tintng my whole tail lights..what if i just tinted the yellow and the white to black. ..and then instead of clear corners on the front..tint that black too. I think that is a desent idea.. not too sure.

if u tint the yellow in the back, u should upgrade to a brighter bulb. personally i wouldn't tint the reverse lights, because it'* probably already hard to see with the 20% tint.
the corner idea is all right, but then i would upgrade to some super whites like ur inner turn signals
originality is key, but don't over do it
