Smoked Lights help

This is probably a stupid question, but how do you get smoked headlights? Is it something you can do to your lights or do you have to buy new lights??

if youre gonna smoke the lense id recommend that you get a body shop to do it, cus any imperfection is gonna show when your headlights are on, also get them done very lightly

And check your state laws before having them smoke your lenses. Most states do not allow it.

look on ebay, you can usually find smoked tint for your headlights that are pre-shaped, so you just stick it on. Its basically the same as window tint, but alot thicker, and goes on fairly easy. It goes on the outside of the lights so you don't even have to take the lights out of the body.
