Hi heliguy.
Was it mine you wanted to see day time photos of ? Not sure who your post were aimed at.
Anyway I’ll take some when I do my next update on our UK Boxster forum.
This is the only one I have at the moment because, as soon as I put the smoked 3rd high level (HL) brake light in I knew that was the look I was after and here's the picture

I didn't take anymore as you can see the brightness of the brake light is as bright as the OEM lights, and the 3rd HL strip is smoked the same as my rear light clusters, here’s a picture of them switched off where you can see how dark they look with the smoked tint.

I knew there was going to be a few out there that would say they are not bright enough, OK they are not as bright as my LED set of rear lights that I have (I change them during the winter months) granted, but where the standard wattage bulb for normal rear lights is 5w I have changed mine to 10w so even with just driving lights on they are brighter to allow for the smoke tint.
I will post some photos like I said when I get around to posting on our UK forum.
Guvs.
