Tinted Side Reflectors

So with this a majority of people paint match these, i decided to just go ahead and do it myself to tint them. 35% . Reason why i chose tint is because i still wanted the reflector to function. Anyone else tint theirs? What do you guys think?

Im ordering clear, not a huge fan of the tint over the orange from the pics I've seen. It may look better in person though. Not that I think about it, I bet the clear reflectors look good smoked. Hmmm...

I was thinking about that, but I'm doing the basic black on black look so went with this. Clear also looks good though!
