take a look at the nightshade bottle and see if there are any instructions on how to do so.

in the past, acetone has helped me remove paint from plastic lenses, but i'm not sure if nightshades is the same thing as paint

You might be screwed. There's lots of paint removing products out there, but once it's removed, the shiny original look might be lost.

Did you get a ticket or something??

if they did lose their luster, maybe some aggresive platstic polishing would help them get back some shine
