Try VHT Nightshade, its made for that specific purpose. And if people clown you for smoking your tail lights then you can just take some paint removing product to take it off.

they sell that **** on ebay, its in a spray can

i dotn remember what its called but its specially mad for that

one can should do for your tails and bumper lights if you will,

spray light coats its WILL run faster than regular spray paint

( i did thid to my buddies integra)


<-- my feelings about "smoked taillights"

but to each his own

Looks pretty clean, overkill would have been the whole tail lights being completly blacked out. Let us know if you plan to do this type of mod

Use Veil. It makes it more difficult for police to laser your car and it puts a nice tint on the lights.

Get the vinyl film....alot better than the spray (which can leave a flat look)
