VST niteshade (?) spray... it is used on tail lights... just do a light coat or two on the reflectors to give them a smoke look...

When it lights up will the amber distort the color or is the niteshade enought to make the amber a non factor

It depends on how much you put on... If you want them to reflect light still then put on a coat or two and yes they will have a darker amber tint both with and without light... If you put on alot it will black them out and also stop them from reflecting light...
