I know you can get smoked rear lenses but not sure bout the front. Have you tried Megabug, Heritage, JK or ebay?

Clear ones. lightly sprayed black, with Jaffa bulbs should work...

Thats all they do with the black rear types.. :chew:

I remember doing what Wrong Plates suggested years ago. But don't forget to look in the local model shops. I use a smoke tint paint by Tamiya on the windows on some of my models. DON'T however spray it on the outside of the lense because it is formulated for polycarbonate and can go hazy.

I've got a set of smoked sitting in my garage with a pair of Jaffa bulbs... bought them off ebay a few years ago for the "project" that's parked up at a farm that's waiting to come in this year :)

In fairness to peet, i'd like to give him first dibs as it's his thread :ha:

But £15 gets them delivered to your door, just requiring a signature :)
