I think that most autoparts stores carry it.

If you can't find it there, try a hobby store. I got some spray paint called window tint for about $4 a can. Works great. All you need is 2 coats. Spray them thin and let dry 5 minutes between coats. Light comes through fine. Looks great. You can make them shine with clear coat or just wax them. Clear coat will make them a little darker.

2 coats window tint spray paint. Clear coat will make them look a little darker.

I took these pictures late in the day so the lights look a little darker than they do in the day time. More pictures here: http://www.imagestation.com/album/?id=4288172507&congratulation_page=Y

No. I took them off. The paint is very thin so don't overdo it.

I tinted some altezzas and screwed up. 2 coats on one and 1 on the other. When you put them side by side you can tell one is a little darker than the other. If anyone wants them, send me an e-mail jholifield2003@comcast.net. Pay shipping and they're yours.

I had an idea about using that stuff on my turn signal covers and the reverse lights as well. Has anyone tried it before? Do you guys think 3 coats would be too much? thanks

Here is my tinted tails. I used NiteShades tint spray. It costs about $8 a bottle. I got it at the Show in Carlisle, PA. I also did the reverse lights like you mentioned. It's very easy to do and looks tits. emoji
