You cannot be serious. Smoking windows? Thats a term used for head/taillights and side markers. If you don't even know were to begin then I don't suggest you even try tinting your own windows, it takes a lot of practice, and patience. I say just take it to a tint shop in your area as they will guarantee the work they do against fading. Cheap tint from the auto store fades after less then a year.

I agree with the person on top its not something you do your self the first time without having someone there that done it before you are better off just paying.

if you search 'smoked lights civic' on ebay there are precut films to put on your lights and i assume they are street legal. they had 38% and 10% i think.

Just make sure it is legal in your area. I got stop every week for tint in my neck of the woods. I delt with it. Loved the look of a blacked out ride.

Different prices for different areas NY here when i had my wagon i got them done for 60 bucks i came out pretty and then i had them done again since i wanted them darker and went to another place because lost the contact of the first they charged me 100. but if you going to go to a place that the tints are laser cut the price will go up but the finish product is incredible well worth the money.

tint is a transparent sticker just ontop of the window, the tail lights are model paint. if you have a paint gun just mix clear coat and black base together until you get the desired transparencey and spray
