Some macco paint shops does this, some do not. They all charge different prices for some reason. They do a good job. They use clear coat with dark tint to whatever shade u like.
I would only trust macco with taillight tint, nothing else.

Use Nightshades or transparent paint if your a good DIYer.

Post pics if you get it done.

GOod luck.

Check out StickerCity in Sherman Oaks. They do an amazing job. They did my G35 Coupe. When u go over there they are always doing some kind of Lambo or SLR. They will take care of your car.

stickercity will charge $145 to wrap your tail lights which is good because if you want to take the tint off you just pill it off no damage to the tail lights. dont spray you tail lights because you cant reverse it please cops in LA will ticket you if your tail lights are to dark its happend to many twice so be careful. im going to stickercity soon to have my new tail lights done. check them out at www.stickercity.com also have youtube videos that shows the process.

Yah i got my pinnacle done by Mark at Tint Plus and he did my tails as well. If you're coming to the upcoming meet at Tustin you can see my car since I'll be there. He did an amazing job on the tails. He told me he uses 3m film for them and it turned out pretty dark.
