I cant say for sure what he used, but i do know you can by the spray. Go to your local auto store and they should have spray on light lens tint. It looks dark but still allows the light to shine through

It cant be window tint. That is applied from the backside of the window. Try sticking that to the backside of a tail lens, Its just a special spray. Tape off the light areas you dont want affected and spray away. Its made to be transparent for the bulb
