Smoked lights

I didn't get a respond on my last thread so thought I'd ask the question a different way and see if anyone would help. I'd like to upgrade my side marker lights and mirror blinker lights. I'd like for both to be smoked and wondered if these are sold with tinted plastic or if that is something I need to do. If I need to do it to get the look I'm going for then I'd appreciate any insight on the best method to make this happen.

Thanks

The way I smoked my tail lights was with a Polyurethane smoke sprayer...I covered every inch on the car, cause I was lazy...you could always remove them and do them.

Either way it works fine just make sure you light spray it as you don't want the polyurethane dripping and making large accumulations on edges. Spray from far away, Just go to a hoby store and tell them you need a sprayer for tail lights they will show you a variety (poly) of colors.

I am not sure I like smoked lights, but the sidemarkers are best painted the same colour as the car, in my opinion.
