Looks great. Do you have any more pictures a little farther away from the rear and/or different angles?

Be careful tinting you taillights. They are considered safety equipment and you are impeding their OEM ability to provide safety by obsuring their visibility to other drivers. Additionally, if you get rear ended, the other driver could complain on brakelight visibily and you could be citied making the accident your fault.
Also, it just might be the excuse police are looking for to pull you over. Otherwise, it's looks sweet.

I like the tinted, but have thought about the all red lights. I was wondering how you got the red "S"?

I took the S emblem purchased from Suncoast Parts to my body shop and had it painted.

JoeShark,
This is the only other rear pic I have. The right tail light is under direct sunlight, so it almost looks OEM here. Hope it helps.
