Question smoked side markers

you know the lights on the front fenders just below and in front of the mirrors. Does anyone make those smoked. Or is it just easier to buy the stuff and do it myself? Also does anyone know where i can get a rear window spoiler?

I am tired and I don't have anything else to say besides search! . But since you live in WA, I'll answer your first question. YES! just do it by yourself.

Try some tint spray in a can. There's probably better ways of doing it. I got some JDM stuff in a can to make lenses, sidemarkers, glass, etc... into an Amber tone.

Nope.... just pop the dust sheild from around the rear of the front tires, reach in, and jimmy out the markers. I just had to do that to replace the bulbs from amber to chrome bulbs. Now if I can just find some clear reflectors, I'll be all good.... LOL (Can you tell I hate the color Amber?)

^ I did the stock ones so the backing was black. And the lens still clear. Sort of looking like the blacked out headlights...
