Why would anyone black out tail lights, that is insane. I would think there is a good safety reason why the LEDs and blacked out tail lights wouldn't pass inspection. In my state, both would attract law enforcement and get fix it tickets.

In my state tinting the tails/headlights is illegal. The tails must also have proper colored lenses and colored bulbs are illegal.
Some drivers who get rear ended end up 50% at fault if their tails aren't legal.
