Maybe you can try this product. Very cheap and easy to use.
You can paint it directly from outside and remove it if you dislike.

I bought a tinting spray a few years back when I was on vacation in California. It also came out kinda dull looking like that. It stayed on for a few years before it started to fade. It would come off if you rubbed alcohol on it.

no ones mentioned that there is a smoked vinyl film that can be applied to the tail lights, ...edit that, maybe it was that the lights are too curved/complex to wrap them in vinyl. Has Aerotec tried it yet?

I may try it on my car, just not sure if i'd keep it on.

I called Sticker City (Sticker City in Sherman Oaks, CA. They'll paint the tail lights permanently for $190. I'm hoping one of the CL vendors can provide this or a similar service for a lower price.

I'm not going to get it done there. I really want to see it on a SGM car first before I get it done permanently. I really wished there was a way for AeroTect to put a film on it though so I could take it off if it didn't look good...
