Tinted the whole unit to try and blend them together a bit, give me your input on which shade is best.

I don't think it will stick because it's glass but it looks sweet anyway.

Really? Are those different inner tail lights? Those lights were on the '93 850, and are similar to the those on the 940/960/S90. The 1994-1997 850 had a design that flows with the outer tails a little better.

The headlights look nice!
