Tinted Taillights on X4MC?

BIMMERPOST
     Featured on BIMMERPOST.com
Hi,

I have tinted the taillights on my '20 X4MC, but now I'm trying to decide if I should keep the tint or go back to factory look. I'm really about 50/50 and wanted to get a vote on your thoughts.
The transparent smoke color tint doesn't change the brightness or color of the LEDs or affect seeing the running/brake or turn signals, but does give it a better look with the TRM color in the daytime, IMHO.

Your thoughts, and please vote in the poll at the top of the thread...

Thanks in advance,
John

It's not bad, but I don't think I'd do it if I had one.

One of my issues with a red Bimmer is that it just doesn't look right in the area of the tail lights. So, for a red, and ONLY for a red X4, I vote YES.

I don't like it. The rest of the car looks great!

Thanks everybody for your comments and votes.

I've decided to go back to the naked, just as designed by BMW, look.

I think it looked great in particular with the red. Relatedly, this partial blackout solution showed up in my email today.
