Here is a pic from last year. Not real close, but you get the effect that I got from the use of the NiteShades stuff and 3 layers of clear.

Here are a few pics of my euros that were tinted up before I went back to the stockers. Hopefully the stockers will be tinted in the next week or so. Also I just did a friends Hemi with flames ghosted into the tint. I will post pics in the next day or two.

We taped off the flame outline, tinted the flamed part off, removed the tape, then tinted the entire taillight. They only thing that isn't tinted at all is the reverse light.

The kind I used only comes in black and transparent red. The Dodge tails I did look like the factory smoked TrailBlazer tails if it gives you any idea. I did a friends black 78 Silverado though and they are dark, look black until you get very close to them. Neither really have any problems with the light output through them though.
