Awesome! Hey thats cool that a MINI Cooper S GP made it into your picture album along with BMW Ms, Z8s, GT3s, Lotus's, Ford GTs, Ferrari's, Morgan's, Lambos, Astons, and other exotics.
Ya those red mirrors are funny... not sure why MINI decided to make them stick out so much. those are OEM. WOW MINI of Hawaii... nice...

that pic makes me wanna smoke my lights.. still thinking if i should 
Hey why dont you try the vinyl way first... $14 for 18" X 24" roll will probably be MORE than enough and 30 mins of your time and you'll know... and if you dont like it... very easy to remove with no after effects.
http://www.rvinyl.com/cart/store.php?crn=6...ion=show_detail
It's rather easy to install... just trace out the shape of your rear lense and where you want "smoked" and then before peeling the backing off the vinyl to revel the adhesive part, put it up to your lense and do a final trim and get some soapy / alcohol water mixture and apply it to your lights. There's instructions on how to do it... THen if you have extra you can send it to me I want to smoke the bottom reflectors on my IS.
Oh plus you can use this 10% coupon code if you order. RVINYL
Here's some pics of what I did with my IS. 10 months and countless car washes and the vinyl on my IS still looks brand spaking new.
*BEFORE* Notice the Amber Blinkers.
*AFTER* All red Tail lights - except for reverse.
Sorry for Hijacking the thread but I wanted to share the cheapie way and fully reversible way to smoke tail lights.
