How can I tint the rear tail lamp lenses like this?

I found this picture on the net. I love the tinted lenses, and would like to do this on my S600. Does anyone know how to do this?

He DOES? I thought YOU liked it? If YOU like it, go for it. I happen to think it looks TIGHT and find nothing rice or Honda about it. "Rice" would be clear Altezzas. If anything, smoked lenses might look a little too "Pontiace Grand Prix". Done the way it was in that picture, I don't see how it detracts from the Benz-ness of your car at all.

I do like it ackvig...and now that you mention it, I agree that the rice burners tend to use the clear stuff. I did hear from someone else that Officer Friendly might not like the tinted lamps. Could be illegal, depending on how Officer Friendly is feeling that day. I'll check around to see what the rules are.
