Default Tail light tint question?

Are these:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/MUSTA...09357703QQrdZ1
as good as the ones found here:

Also do you think my car would look better with the black out, or the 50% tints.

It's just vinyl for now. It'll be painted here in the near future. They sell 'em on Ebay, but I just when to the local fast signs store and bought a piece of vinyl and cut it out.

I bought ones from that guy off of e-bay and they don't fit right. Two of the tints were to short to cover the entire panel so i just gave up and asked for a refund. He will only refund me $19.99 though. beware!!!
