Light smoker...

So I'd like to darken most of the lights on my Max, but haven't decided how yet. I really like the look of the UK corners a few people here have, but haven't been able to find any. Any help on that would be appreciated. Also, I was thinking of using this spray-on tint on some of the lenses, some stuff that I saw at a hobby shop for tinting windows on model cars. Just wondering if anyone has used this stuff (on their cars or otherwise), or has any input.

You know, I'll probably just get some of that stuff and test it on my brother's Corolla. He always lets me use his car as a guinea pig. I'll let you know how it turns out. The only thing I'm worried about is fading or chipping. We'll see how it goes, I guess.

well if you want the true UK look then I can do them for you. I use clear and mixing paint to get them really close and it will never fade (because I use actual clear just like on the car...not spray paint clear).

If you use night shades it looks too dark and is more bronze and black than the blackish grey that the UK lights are. If you like the really dark look then night shades works well. I just prefer the lighter more like the original UK look.
