Smoked Lights
***I just do this as a hobby. I'm by no means a professional painter but try to do my best. Most of these lights will be buffed to get any imperfections out but may still have light scratches or whatnot but not really noticable***
I have a few factory 3rd brake lights for sale that I smoked. Two of them have the cargo light left clear and the rest smoked. Then I cleared over the entire thing. Then the other is completely smoked. All are the same darkness. These have 2 coats of clear over the smoked base and are very slick. They have not been buffed yet either.
I am asking $30obo shipped for your choice, however the solid one has what appears to be a hairline crack on the top corner but isnt really noticeable and has been epoxied on the backside. I would like $20 for it.
Here are some pics. I will post better quality ones later.
I can also get OBS lights and do them also.

I use dupont paints. They are done using black basecoat mixed in with clearcoat. Then 2 coats of clear only over that. NO NITESHADES! These are just as glossy as the exterior of your vehicle. They have a spec of dust in it but like I said I havent even buffed them out and they look great.
Not right now, I only have these but can get and smoke those if you need it.

Usually for the local folks I do $40 for a set. So that + shipping would work.
