Alright guys i need your help again sorry. So i have 3 sets of tail lights. 1 came with the car when i bought it and I bought 2 pairs from a guy off craigslist.
So i have a pair of altezza's that failed inspection but are in good condition. A pair of stock tail lights that are in good condition. And a pair of not stock tail lights that passed inspection but are scratched up (not sure what style they are sorry).

So the question is which ones should i tint? Im not familiar with the legalities of tinted tails in Nj, maybe some of you are. Im thinking about tinting them not too dark and use them as m everyday tailights. Im not sure if i should tint the altezzas though because they failed for not having a reflector and that might cause a problem if they are tinted.

Anyone have any advice?

Where in Fl..... If you are going to UCF/FAU the cops on that side are real dicks and they'll pull you for tinted tails. In Miami, Tampa, and I believe Gainesville the cops are more lax.

Idk about cops in those parts of the state. But I say go ahead an tint the tails. Tinted tails look good on silver.
