There are some with the Whistler mod which is just the inner piece painted black, but to smoke the lense itself is not a good idea. It will definetly cut down visibility at night. Hence why most run covers then remove them at night.

I have smoked every light and have tinted windows all around (including the windshield). Having smoked headlights S U C K S at night. Between the smoked headlights and the tinted windshield it's terrible to drive. My car is SGM and the headlights look killer during the day though...

I'm pretty sure you're thinking of the whistler mod. Smoked lights aren't done very often as they make it pretty hard to see, and aren't legal in all states.

Whistler Mod Write Up.
