Default smoked tailight covers

i just saw a mustang with smoked tailight covers, but they looked diff than any others i've seen. you know how our tailights have three sections, well on his the middle part of the light was either lighter than the other two sides or he cut it out. does anyone know what im talking about? or where i can get them>

on the tail lights there are three slits. on his the middle slit was lighter than the outer two slits. it gave it a cool look.

maybe he got blackouts on the 2 outside parts, and 50% smoked on the middle?

doubt it...but just an idea.

Another neat trick is to mix a tiny amount of you body color paint with a bunch of clear coat in a paint gun, then paint your lenses
This used to be real popular in Europe when everyone wanted a smooth flush look to there cars, because it makes your lights look the same color as your bodypanels but still lets the light through!
