Socal shops that offer tail light smoke out mod?

Hey guys, wondering if anyone knows of any shops in the orange county/LA area that will black out your taillights. I was advised not to black them out using the tint material because of the way FRS lights are shaped it would be difficult and not come out the way its supposed to. So it looks like i'm going to have them painted. Anyone know of any shops that will do them for you for a good price?

VHT makes a spray that does it. My friend used it on his Xterra.

Also, FYI, I the cops want to be jerks they can write the tinted tail lights as a moving violation instead of a fix it ticket. I've seen it happen in San Diego. It just depends how they interpret the law.
