Blacked out tail lights

[Ram IT]

Hey guys i just got a red 2012 and all the pics i have of red ones look great with the head and tail lights blacked out. What is the best way to do that without buying whole new lights and so that you can still see the light.

I used VHT niteshades to tint my taillights. The place i found it was Canadian Tire, it's a translucent paint in an aerosel can. I just bought black headlights though because i had a Dakota before my 2011 Ram and sprayed the headlights and couldn't see very well.

Most of the guys that I see who VHT have dull lights. Its not to say that if done correctly they won't look rocking......but.....I prefer a different route.
