Default tinted/black fog lights?

has anyone had their foglights tinted? i see you can buy black fog lights for 06-newer trucks, but not the rectangle 04-05 style. any pics of 04-05 trucks with tinted or black fogs? thanks!

Check the first pic in my garage. I did 2 or 3 light coats on mine. I have HIDs so I can't tell an output difference.

thanks for the info. i would like to avoid the purple look haha. i very rarely use my fogs anyways, being that my headlights are HID, they are plenty bright. And if i tint them, i will probably throw some silverstars in the fogs instead. I havent had much luck with the whole HID thing
