Decide first, if you are going to paint them or use vinyl film to smoke them. Aerotect sells pre-cut vinyl smoke films for out tail lights. You just gotta bring it to a place that works with vinyl. Or you can paint them, and have the more glossy wet looking smoked tail light.

I'm sure there are some Texas owners who will point you in the right direction. Just decide what you personally want, paint or vinyl.

ideally, use vinyl in case you need to take it off later (reasons such as you not liking it, cops saying it has to be removed, etc.). if you paint them, it'll look much nicer IMO, but i took the vinyl approach from aerotect cuz u never know with cops...good luck! and post some before and afters of your mod.

I recommend the vinyl, just incase you have to take it off. I tinted my turn signals, reverse lights, and reflectors. Similar to s4play.
