Smoked Tail lights
Does anyone know a really good way to smoke out tail lights. the ones i did before were done with light coats of black spray paint but i was just wondering if there was a better cleaner way.

I've seen people use transparent black paint used for model cars and the final results look good.

you could use clear vinyl like window tint for a cleaner finish than seeing the masking lines (if not smoking entire tail)
