Are you talking about the crease that us between the reverse light and brake light? If so good luck filling that in. The red line goes down the middle of that seam and then the plastic plays a nice illusion on you while you look at the line from different angles while taping if off. I hope that's what your talking about because I don't see it then.

If you look at the pictures you just posted the right lens you can see the red stripe while the left light does not have it. I have also done professional tinting for many years and I would never tint the exterior of a rear light, I always tent the interior of the lens and yes it requires more work but the work looks much better in the end. Put some light behind your tint at night time and take a picture and lets see it then because that's when you see real imperfections.
