help needed on taillight tints in Mass.

I've been trying to find an experienced paint/body shop for "smoked" taillights here in eastern Mass., but to no availe.All shops that advertise ( premium- custom painting) haven't a clue. Is there any local help out there that can save me time in my search. Would be greatly appreciated.
THANKS

Hey guys, how about this, As also owning a licenced body shop I will buy a set of taillamps and tint them. Cost will be $95.00 plus $20 shipping. There will also be a $220 core charge. ( my actual cost ) When you purchase the lights I will send you the tinted set. When you get them just send me your originals and we will then credit you for the core charge. This way there is no down time on not using your car or actually buying other taillamps. If anyone is interested in doing this please pm me

NON HEMI VIP HEADLAMP COVERS & TINTED TAILLAMPS

Hi Everyone,

I just wanted to share some photos of a customer's car we did today using VIP's new non hemi headlamp covers. We also did a set of tinted taillamps for this car. I would say these are mid to dark tint. We could also do these in bodycolor with a lighter tint over the brake light. I think that would look really hot on a vanilla car. What are your opinions?

looks pretty nice to me from what i can see...juss a tad to dark i think but you did say you could color match and a tad bit lighter? can you custom it by not spraying the reverse lines on the lense?and if so total cost and what will be refunded at return of my set of break lights.?herbs

Total cost is $95.00 plus 20 shipping plus $220 refundable core charge when I get your original undamaged taillamps back. 2 tones are $150. We can do anything you want in terms of shade and if you want them color matched to the car.Just about anyway you want the taillamps to look like. The more complicated obviously the more money it will cost.
