Saad if you want the same affect then I'm told you can use the Transparent Red modelling paints from a model shop.

the chrome is still on the inside mate. the bodyshop used a transparent spray paint, similar to the type that Nik mentioned, on the outside of the light so that it covers the chrome up but is still transparent enough for the orange indicator to show. If you're at MITP then I'll show ya dude
