I dunno, do me it's a HUUUUUGE difference. Can't stand the pre-face look, to be honest.S orry bro - I feel awful; I should've included a link and discussed more. I was on Tapatalk for BB and can't cut and paste links.

I've been looking at how to upgrade the tails on my wagon for a while. The options for wagon tails are a bit more limited than sedan/coupes.
The exterior of my wagon is black - so I've thought about just doing the Nightshades on my OEMs but am concerned about the numerous law enforcement agencies in PA and MD that I could encounter on my drive every day to/from work. So I might just use lamin-x - that way I can remove if I need to.
Don Nguyen - on e46f.c - is wrapping lights and roofs has some really great pictures of what he's doing over in Cali. He's using lamin-x, so if you need to you can always remove it. Link here: http://forum.e46fanatics.com/showthread.php?t=704954
I've also seen recommendations for Jon's Tinted Tails... http://www.jonstintedtails.com/index.htm.
Since both use Lamin-X, which comes in a variety of colors and can be used to color match, I wouldn't see why they couldn't do amber across the clear portion of your lights.
It's just another option out there where options are limited.
Speaking of pre-facelift vs facelift tails... from your pictures - I'm pretty sure I've got the facelift front... but pre-facelift tails.
