How you going to smoke them without overlays? Spray them with a can
I did that with transparent model tint spray ($4 at hobby shop) They looked great for a while, but while at the body shop the guy buffed the car and accidently buffed 1/2 the paint off the lights. I tried repainting but they look like sheet. I have Bat's overlays in the closet with the rest of my "after the snow is gone" mods.

Cant wait to see them installed .

BTW, I will be working on the amber/smoke turn signal overlay for the bottom of the tails in a day or two. I assume the bottom portion is the turn signal, or is it the reverse lamp?

If I was willing to bake my tail lights in the oven and cut them apart I would have just painted the chrome inside that I don't like. But yes, you could paint the inside.

The bottom portion is both the turn signal and reverse lamps. The outer half is the turn signal and the inner half is the reverse light.

So did I read it right in that you are going to make the smoked overlays for the tail lights? I would be more interested in those than red. Does anyone know if there is a smoked headlight overlay for the RA?

He already has smoked tail overlays for our car, available in 6/10 (dark) and 3/10 (light). As for headlights, not right now (our headlights are smoked from the factory), and chances are headlight overlays would be illegal.

Nice. I'll be ordering those smoked ones shortly. Anyone know how long it would take to get these after you place an order? Too bad about the headlights. I think they would look good smoked a little darker than they are.

Yeah, I went and looked after you said that he has them. The ones in those pictures are the 6/10 tint right?
