I say you do your tails too. I've had.mine for almost a year and haven't been bothered whatsoever for them. And mine are completly BLACK with niteshade not just smoked. But my light still shines through them day and night. I think cops just use them to pull you over for other suspicion like stated before but won't ticket you on them. I'm pretty sure all they care about is for the brake light and turn signals to be visible cause I've had numerous cops just follow behind me until I brake or use a turn signal to make sure the light is visible and once they've confirmed it they just pass me and drive off. Maybe its not the same where your from but there's only one way to find out. Do them too!

To be honest with you John, the way your luck is around your area I would just leave them alone.

Yah cops are like rolling the dice around here, might go with a 1 light coat just to darken them up slightly, but still keep the red very visible. I have had cops stop me in the parking lot, I am thinking I am getting a ticket, they just want to BS about the truck. I had smoked tails before, but got hassled. I am def going do them lighter if I do them

Just do one light coat per week and they'll never notice
