I always suspected that smoking those would look hot. Great job!

It kinda defeats the purpose of having a jdm tail light doesn't it? Why not just smoke out ur oem lights? Please enlighten me if I'm being ignorant.

because the tails are clear i was able to pull it off with 2 coats instead of 3 and i still have a great light output, brake leds,flashers and reverse i really dont see a difference with my back up cam so its an advantage of smoking the jdm instead of the oem's

I'm not a fan of this look but at least you did a good job in painting them.
