    I did mine with red stained glass paint a while ago, I found the cans on clearance awhile ago for a dollar each. I think a sharpie costs more than that.

            Glass paint is better and the results are cleaner.

                      just did this DIY right now. and i am very pleased with how it turned out. IMO it probably would look better with the stained glass paint, but using a sharpie is a great alternative. And i like how it looks now, much better than the clear stock lenses.
