This is the best I could find.

Try Night Shading your current tails. A lot of guys have done it on here, just type "Nite Shade" into the search and a lot of stuff about it will come up.

Here's a How To thread on it.

I don't think the taillights are sold completely blacked out. Some guys buy the smoked and then nightshade the lens.

Yea it's not bad. I did it on my fogs and 3rd brake light. Just make sure to give a light sanding between coats and use a clear coat.

yeah ive never seen new ones for sale that had a completely black lense.

i think your best bet would be to buy some Lightning replica lights and have them professionally blacked out.
