Thanks in advance!

I thought we are talking about smoke "front" clear lenses. Are we? I hope we are talking about that :p Anyway I think $98 has to be front reflector lens, yes it is still expensive but can we live without one

Thanks,

I have a (smoked) set for sale. 3m five layer spray.
I went with the (silver) painted lenses instead.

Can provide pictures on request

I don't see the silver. They look darker than mine which are stock for now.... What is the difference between the smoked and the painted silver.

Thanks....

Post pics of the smoked lens and how much?
Actually, any shop recommendations for "smoking the tail lens? I don't want to go the tint film route. Los Angeles area.

I had my tail lenses smoked at a place in Santa Monica, which also installed upgraded speakers, amplifiers, blue tooth enabled phone system, and a K-40 radar detector system, and painted out the new small Sirius antenna to match the car color (Black Opal). On Wilshire Blvd, between 24th & Chelsea, Automotive Entertainment. They also do window tinting but I have another place that I use for that.
