The right side looks all right, the left too dark ..

Like a great artist destroying his own (someone else's) work, Mlai is one hard to satisfy bro.. he demands perfection.

But good call, i think lighter tint sin acceptable.. no MK black SLK/Cs/Audis you see on the street

Wow...that's quick mlai

To be honest, I'm not a fan of dark tint. I think the best for while line is just a piece of very light tint, which you can still easily see the white line and inside.

But after looking at your photo, it actually turns out pretty good on your color, it match with your body color well. Don't take them off that soon, maybe you will change mind and love it after looking at it under the sun shade. At least wait till your new rim coming and see

Problem is the same as the F14 gunmetals that I have. They match TOO WELL. And everything in the same color just become a glob of sophisto gray, instead of a classy F10

But will try and wait for sunny days to snap some pictures first. Don't think i will get used to it, just the same way as I will not be contend with gunmetal F14s

No harm, just play with it for awhile. Not an costly mod and easy to revert. Just consider it as trial and error.
