I'd really like to see this happen. Since I've been telling these guys that it's coming. At least that's what CM has told me, up until the end of last year. Would a new manufacture help?

Has to be some sick dude reviving this almost dead thread and teasing us who bought the smoked fronts. I'm with a few others patiently waiting for someone to make some smoked rears. Don't feel it happening anytime soon. I still can't understand why they would make the fronts and not the rears. It's not like they don't have a mold to do so..... I guess I'll wait another 9 months or so.

Whenever someone votes in the poll, it gets kicked back up to the top, whether they post a reply or not.

problem with those...they dont reflect the correct colors (amber and red).

if you paint your stock sidemarkers, they will still light and reflect amber and red.

How did you paint yours? Did you paint the inside or outside of them?
