Lookin on ebay

I was browsing on ebay and saw "smoked out rear lights", apparently its a film/cover you put on rear lights to smoke them out instead of painting......
Has anyone ever heard of that? or Recommend doing that ?The pics look pretty nice

its really easy to install, you just have to spray soap and water on your taillights than put the sticker on and use the squegee(sp) to push all the water out

yea i got them off of stickercity.com and i picked the darkest tint and my headlights were aimed low(before i knew how to align them myself) and it was so hard to see at night so i would use my brights but i didnt like doing that so i took them off one day, i would like to have the removable ones but i dont think they make them for our cars. The tail light ones were the ones i was really nervous about cause when your driving and the glare of the sun is on the back of your car and you go to brake there is no way someone is gonna see your lights, so i took them off.
