Here's the front of my car with the corner blinkers smoked out. The headlights, especially from a distant somewhat look darkened too. Probably from reflection an the lights background. Its the fog light that really stand out an why I wanted to smoke them out.

I Dont think it looks bad but they're not matching. Trying to decide if smoking them out will bring the led brightness, color down.
The tint will cut the light down, but it was too dark. I ended up baking my fogs just enough for the glue to soften up and then I spayed the chrome buckets gloss black.

Has to be one of the best if not the best treatment of the fog lights that I have seen. Great Job !

I really like the gloss black painted center portion of the GT/CS bumper. Looks great !

I used duplicolor engine enamel and I used high temp rtv. I used these high temp products because of the heat of my hid's.
