    smoked rear tail lights...spray can or film?

    well, i think i'm going to keep searching for a secure way to do this. i'm sure there's a way of doing it. I'll be looking towards the film for obvious reasons, if i mess it up i'll peel it back to it's original state. Thanks for the feedback and if you have some ideas/link just let me know.

    Hi, took delivery of my mazda5 and i'm thrilled! In the next few days/week i'll be looking for a deflector and was looking for alternative (if any) to the OEM mazda one. Now, i know there are other stuff out there like the magnetic bra or clean bra but i'm not interested in them. Is there in...
