I want to go for the smoked lights on my cab however, I'm finding both Hella and Startec expensive..

What is the alternative?...Smoke the standard lights my self?

They have to be projector on the front!

If anyone has done this...any pics??

Thanks

You can either follow the guide in the wiki for the fronts, or use lamin-x &/or fly eyes on both front & rears,

Saw a se of smoked mhw style smoked rear lights on ebay the other week.
if it's got t*ts or wheels it's bound to be trouble...............prove me wrong.

Depends how brave u are mate.
Mine are toned clear coated by a painter. I like them
If i could get some startecs / mhw i would, probably :o:
But as a passable option, i would do these all day long.
But be sure the painter knows what hes doing :wink:

You can also get that look/effect with tinting film aswell, cheaper than a paint shop,
