There is a way...

Go to Hobby Lobby in the model paints section and pick up Testers translucent black paint - I used it on my Jetta's front turn signals and it worked great - you'll probably need about 5 or 6 coats to get it dark enough. Don't rush the process, or it will run and look like crap!

I'm starting to smoke mine tomorrow.

The product you want is called VHT Night Shades. I'll post pics of the lenses I finish tomorrow night hopefully.

What, is it 1985 again? I though smoked lenses were out around when the third smokey and the bandit movie came out.
