Default color matching tail lights?

so i have a friend that works at a sign shop. he mixed paint to tint taillights a few times and they came out great.

my question is would you de able to use another color other than black? my paint code is *NH583M*. could i mix that to cover my tail lights, but still have it translucent enough for the bulbs to shine threw? i've never seen this done before.

i have a brand new set laying around and i was going to redo the lights i have now. they look good from a distance, but whoever did them didnt do too nice of a job.

i think ill sand off the ones i have and give it a try. it it ends up sucking, i can always do the spare set. ill post pics when i acctually get around to doing it
