Smoked/Tinted Taillights

Brought my baby to the shop yesterday to get the whole package done (clear bra, window & taillight tint)... It's a pretty reputable company, but they said the taillights cannot be tinted 'cuz of a lotta curves and "rectangular" holes at the edge (I was gonna have just the red part tinted)
He said the only way this could be done is if I have it spray tinted.
Nevertheless, it looked awesome after the window tint.. 35% all around.

Any thoughts on this?!

Do it yourself with VHT Nightshade. Do a couple of light coats and you're good to go.
