Photoshop Request: Smoked Rears on my coupe

Hey, i was playing with the notion of smoking my rear lights. I don't want them black, but i also dont want them kissed. Hopefully somewhere in between.

If it is possible can someone please do a few variations of the lights? Id also like to NOT smoke the clear part. The white strip of light for backing up, id like to leave unsmoked.

Thanks guys, here is the picture of my car:

this kid at my school rebadged his car with GTR in red letters. he has the badge on the back where g35 belongs, on his door pillar, and on his front grille... really pathetic.

isnt the g35 the american version of a skyline? or something like that? its kinda like my friends badging H on their rsx's... one of my friends actually got a type-r engine swap... waste of money though ;o
