Personally, I'm not liking the emblem on the interior.

The full tint across the reverse light looks good. Nice work.

I too agree the tint looks better that way. Still undecided on the emblem on the dash. i might have put it on something under the hood or in the trunk.

I personally like both. The tint is great, and the emblem inside is not that bad either IMO.
