Those look nice already man but having cut outs would definitely set it off! IMO, cut out the 2 holes along with the reverse lights! The leds uncut should be fine! I actually wanted mine as dark as possible without distording the look of the small leds because they come off hazy if they are too dark!
These are painted though but from the pics I think that is already fine! Just need cut outs! Not sure about the middle insert though! Some have pulled that off nicely but its a definite no no for 03-05 Tails! A hard lesson learned for me!

Thanks man! Mine are professionally painted though!
Thanks bro, I am still curious as to how the GTR overlays would look on LR. So you got yours painted huh.. are the two large circles and reverse lights the only things NOT tinted for you? Originally Posted by gbert15

I could try it with the center inserts and see how it looks. I'll post pics up to get some comments from you guys. If I end up changing my mind, it shouldn't be too hard to just take them out.
At first I kinda wished I had 03-05 tails.. would be so easy to tint without having to worry about the dimples lol. Now I'm beginning to like em

^That's cause you didn't put none as an option, if you did you would see a very overwhelming voting trend. But if you wanted a choice between the ones you offered, then you are right.

I had very light GTR style overlays on mine. Light enough that it wasn't noticable. I liked them at first, but when I sold my car and took them off, they looked a lot better.
So I would go without overlays. I will say however that certain cars do pull them off.

My bad, by cars I meant certain G35s.
Black G35's with a dark tint look pretty good. (Not blacked out tint). I feel like a different trunk helps too.

not an LR, but you get the idea. the trunk is not closed in this pic

Is the entire tail light painted or did you leave the circles unpainted?Originally Posted by dcityjatt
that is not tint. it is painted
