I want to darken my taillights (smoke colored). How do I do that and what color paint should I buy? If any of you guys have done this before, can I get the color code? That'd help out... =0)

Blue Bat has a kit out that covers the taillight, it is much easier then painting it. Here is the link for his store:

you could use the rc paint with the checkered flag on it... im not sure of the name, thats what i got... its called smoke tint

its easy to do... took like 5 min to tape off the reverse light then about an hour to paint 2 coats

this is how mine came out

I've sold alot of my v10 smoke kits. I even sold a v10 with a v9 redout kit. Looks nice:). CoolWheels has a pic of those kits in my Link. No fading or Peeling either:).
