Interior/Exterior Finally redid my taillights.

Finally redid my taillights.
So I finally got around to cracking open my tails and de-chroming them and tinting the inside lens. I just sprayed the chrome with black primer, then flat black spray paint. Probably a little overkill, but I like to to it that way to be sure.
For the lenses I used Tamiya spray paint for polycarbonate plastic. Originally designed for RC car bodies. The color was smoke, and it ended up with a flat textured look, but I think it looks pretty nice.
What do you think?
And the light shows through pretty well in case you were wondering. I'll get a pic in anyone wants one.

Thanks for all the nice comments.
Yes. I did that to start, but not all of the chrome came off. Plus I like the flat look over the glossy that is under it.
And stop looking at my rear Spade, it makes me uncomfortable.
