The new pics show the tint much better IMO. Very nice. Now you have me thinking about doing it.....Hmmmm

For the corners, you could tint the stock ones (if you still have them) and you'd still have the clears if you didn't care for the tinted look. That's what I did.

I liked it better untinted. I only like the smoked look when it's the inner housing, with a clear outer lens (like your headlights).

Buy some VHT night shades spray from www.summitracing.com and then spray on lite layers while holding 12-16 inches from the surface, 3 coats is sufficient, Let dry for 6 hrs prior to handling.

Did you spray on the outside or inside? Looks great. Where did you get the tint spray?
