Take the lenses off you originals. Get any old tin of black aerosol paint.

Put a light mist coat across the inside of the lense. It wont look dark but you will be surprised. Then refit.

Brightness almost unafected. And you dont have to suffer the crappy aftermarket things.

I just have don't like the look of the stock ones. Obviously it's not exactly a pretty bike anyway and I won't be spending any other money on mods at all.. just for some reason the indicators are standing out to me and I'd like to swap them.

Oh Ok then that's fair enough I suppose, we all buy stuff we don't really need just cos we think it will look good, try the above idea about spraying your lenses and see what that looks like first, if your going to fit new ones anyway it might surprise you. :jossun:

Why would you want to change to smoked lenses? Surely this is just asking for some car driver to shunt you up the a##e as your going to turn right and then to say sorry I didn't see your indicators. And don't be surprised if this happens and your insurance company refuse to pay out as you've changed the lenses from standard.
