It's different-looking. Maybe you should put another layer or two of tint on the top of the tail lights and it might appear blacker/darker and blend in more with the body; currently, the top-half of the tails look kind of maroon/dark red with the mix of the orange and black. Or I think the top painted red or the entire tails painted or tinted all-black would look good also.

The high beams look kind of different and interesting tinted (gray-ish), though. I think the SC's high beams should be prominent and stand out since it's one of the things that makes the SC an SC and different from other cars. I kind of like the eyelid tint. I think tinting the headlights might look cool with just the clear/chrome high beams visible. Not sure if transparent black paint would be better than tint for that, though, for the most light output, etc.

The sides look exactly like mine, and I used vinyl. I think it looks sweet.
