De-badged and tinted tail lights :)

this x10!! should have washed it before doing that!!!
also if you were debadging why didnt you take a few mins to remove what looks like a dealer sticker slapped on the trunk?
taillights look alright, I'm out of the blacked out tail light phase, but if you like it... and why isn't the thrid brake light done? and the SS badge looks off now that its just floating there on the trunk lid.
sorry just looks like a lot of small things that still need to be cleaned up

there already tinted now lol, kinda late, and i just used plain jane model paint and a fine bristled brush, it takes some time and about 3 or 4 coats, and you dont have to worry about getting paint on the shiny, chrome plastic finish because if you catch it almost right away you can wipe it right off

I'd say, move the SS badge on the trunk to lower left or lower right, it looks odd floating there.
Also, when I tinted my tail lights, the inner reverse lights came out extremely shitty too, but I sanded just as much as the outters... who knows
