So my cousin has a g35 and blacked out (tinted out) his rear lights and they look SICKKK! I wonder if it's possible on the is250??

look up lamin-x film they make for the headlights but i have done many tail lights with good results and its easy to remove if you need to.

Using tint on lights will peel eventually. I had mine painted with a mix if black paint and clear coat. I didn't go totally blacked out, but they look great with atomic silver.

I REALLY want to do this (smoke / paint tint my rear lamps and reflectors), but would love to be able to do so myself, without having to pay a body shop...
