get a can of VHT NiteShades (about $12) and smoke them yourself. Rough up the surface of the lens with a scotch brite pad, and spray them.

this is the same for ANY smoking of lenses. Its much cheaper than buying new lights.

hmmm i dont know if im completely sold on the do-it-yourself idea of smoking lights. i would prefer to buy the lights already smoked, that way i know it wont get messed up. thanks for the input though, and ill definately keep that in mind.

Thanks for the link Saturn.
seems like a good and cheap way to smoke the lens.
I think i might do that for my tail lights

hey PWR, or anyone, do you have any pics of an e46 with amber turn signals that has smoked lamin-x films? can you see the amber through the lamin-x?
