No one really has a how-to on this. There was a group buy through Anderbra but that went south pretty quickly. It basically consists of having to take out the lense, make a mold of it, then use a molding plastic to make a new one.

If you go that route, it would be best to use LED's because the coloured bulbs won't show up as well without a coloured lense behind the tint.

I have been looking into doing that myself and it will take quite a bit of work so I won't be able to start doing anything like that till end of July-ish.

This is definitely a lot trickier than clearing the corners so do the research well and if you would like, I have a few websites that look like they are alright on how to make molds and stuff but haven't had much of a chance to read through them. This is definitely gonna be a summer project. If you find some stuff out post it so we can get a collective research going and eventually put a how to up if you are interested.
