well you're gonna need a large rolling paper, and most likely a torch. I don't recommend smoking corner lenses, but the plastic should get u mad high yo.

Sorry I'm bored

scuff or wet sand the outside of the lights with 1200 grit sand paper or a scuff pad, use plastic primer if u like to prime them, its not needed, spray 2 light coats of nightshades transparent paint, then 2 wet coats. you can also purchase plastic primer and transparent paint at your local hobby shop. good luck

Be sure to add a coat of clear over the tint.. I've tinted my front parking/signal lights and after a drive in the rain or two the tint got splotchy. I may clean it all off and have a go at tinting them from the inside..
