I was about to order the clear front side markers from custommaxima.com (no rears, I don't think they look quite as hideous on my black car), and I started wondering if anybody knew of anybody that makes the front corners in a smoked color? I think that would look better than clear corners on dark cars.

Any info? How hard woudl it be to "smoke" them yourself?

 

there are some spray called NITE SHADES. its for tinting purposes... you can buy them online.. .. for like 10 bucks
spray a few ligth coats.. its very easy.. if u want to make it shiny just spray some clearcoat. after your done

 

yeah i have some nite shades that i bought before... but i didn't end up using it at all cuz someone said that if u smoke them and put hyperwhite bulbs in, the color will come out purplish

 

I was planning on retaining orange bulbs in the clear corners, as I do believe that corner markers should illuminate orange.

Would the tint effect the orange color of the light?

 

yes it definitely would. i used night shades on my rears when i had my old bumper, and i had to unhook them because the light shinning through was like a purpleish color.

 

no it does not make the color come out purple; not for me at least
