Question Light cluster tinting

I read a thread on this not too long ago but couldn't find it bys searching...
I'm looking for spray on tint to cover the inside of my rear clusters. I want them (especially the sidemarkers) subtly darkened like VW did on their previous generation golfs and jettas. Does anyone know where to get this stuff? And has anyone done it? Pics?

Thanks
rj

Been there, Done that.

From my experience, the VHT nightshades adheres better than hobby paint because it is specifically formulated to work on lenses and endure the outside elements.
