I wet sanded em myself w/ 1500 grit sand paper. I then had the owner of the shop spray em w/ black automobile paint. I think they each got 3 or 4 coats of paint. He then sprayed them w/ clear. I left em overnight to dry and picked em up the next day.

I got all the supplies yesterday, and I'm going to try it today. Last night I practiced on these little junk trailer lenses I have. They came out nice! 
Should be pretty easy, except I hate waiting for paint to dry! 
I let you know how it goes.

I'm sure they look way better than those altezzas, eh?
