'Smoking' tail lights

Does anyone know anywhere in Sydney that'll do a tint/ smoke on rear light clusters similar to these (maybe not quite as dark).

just buy 'VHT Nightshade'. You can buy it from Repco, Autobarn, etc.

That's what they use.

Sigh the scissor doors on the e46... Tinted rears look good though

Faaaark...the Aws look awesome with the dark tails. I'm not a real fan of the overly modded (non-oem) look but the dark tails on AW look the business.

Did you get your DPs sorted??
