tint your tail lights, that will darken them up.
tint the brand new ones I just bought? They are Sonar LED Tail Lights (Smoke). I was thinking about doing it but they are brand new
even in the light your still doesn't look the same as mine. There is a lot of clear in the middle of mine where the LEDs are. Mine are Sonar LED Tail Lights (Smoke)It depends on the light they can look dark or light. In this pic they look light.

just dont do more then 3 light coats, or no light will come through at all. a little goes a long way. it dont look so dark but by coat two it started to look dark. why i stopped at 2 coats.
you'll want to mask the tails off too.
scuffed prepped and masked off. i masked off my back up lights, cause i like them lol
one coat.
2 coats.
after the tint drys spray em with a few coats of clear coat. let them dry for a day, then wet sand again with 2,000 grit paper and then do the compounding.
finished and installed day one.
i did these like 3 years ago now. all i do to them is a light compounding when i wax the car and then wax them. they look the same still as seen by the other pics. those are from last summer and fall.
