    It wasn't lens tint paint. It was just black candy car paint. Candy is good to use on lights cause its transparent. I used PPG which is the same paint most paint shops use on cars but you can pick up some black candy in a rattle can at the local paint store. I dont know what the final product will look like, It could be darker in some spots. I used a spray gun cause there more consistent and spray even. But my lights were efected. They wern't as bright after the paint. I just instaled a 10000k HID kit From CARiD and it helped so much! Plus they look really good! Oh and remember it you do spray them, DON'T HAMMER THE PAINT ON. If you put to much on in one coat the paint might "lift" then you'll have to start over. Lots of light coats is better than one heavy coat. Hope I helped ya out!
