I just installed my new set of smoked corners and wanted to share. These are unlike anything you have seen before! You can notice in the pics that they give off a very dark cast in the shade...but in direct sunlight you can see how transparent they really are... What do you think? (please excuse the dirty car)

that looks cool, did you smoke it your self or purchase them already smoked? i want to smoke my tail lights but im afraid i may not like it afterwards, i want to see smoked taillights in person. but that looks nice, especially since your car is black.

^Look up Drksyde's profile he has a link to his myspace page with pictures of his smoked out lights. The things look pissa.. though check your local laws since it may just be illegal. ><!

This is MSTYLES car. He has the smoked tail lights and I think they really smooth out the look of the car. He did not have the smoked corners when I took these pics. If he has not done this he should. I think they look great.

幹他媽!
hmm... those look really nice. i just wish u could buy them off the shelf like that... personally, i think clears enhance the look on lighter colors, like silver & white- but not so much on darker colors, like black & red. the smoked look accents dark colors really nicely tho.

Ok, this is what I did... I purchased the jdm clears from mazdaparts.com and smoked them myself! I basically made a transparent black paint and painted them.. I could do this with any color...phantom gray, winning blue, velocity red..etc. I see just about every member on this forum with clears. I dont know why more people dont tint them their cars color! ![Icon Tup](https://www.rx8club.com/images/smilies/icon_tup.gif)
