To give a smoked effect to the rear lights, you can apply a tint film, available in the aftermarket pre-shaped. Clean the light thoroughly, removing any dirt residue; then apply the film adhesive spray and the film itself, ensuring the edges align perfectly; spray more adhesive to allow the squeegee to slide while adhering the film and eliminating any air bubbles: if any bubbles remain, peel back and reapply, absolutely avoid puncturing the bubble with a needle, or it will start to lift from that point in the future.
