R1 Deep Ruby Custom cut Lenses

I can buy a set off eBay that's positive red. It's already mars ready.
Just can't seem to find a willing cutter out there to possibly add black somehow
You'd need a lens like that to begin with that they can cut from...and it would have to be the same base curve (8.75 for X-Metals)

I think it's because changing the color of the lens could ruin the optical clarity of it.

Cutters don't make custom lenses in that sense, but they can take a lens and cut it down to fit your frame. So you'd have to find a lens that looks like that and has the same thickness.
 
@Funky-Trixtar
Do you think it's possible anywhere on this forum of some genius lens crafter to make a mars lens set based on this picture


I'm dreaming and very willing to pay for it . Just can it be done somehow

I wouldn't mind the optical clarity
I'm thinking along the lines of ordering a red pair of mars off eBay than maybe some tint shop could smoke them out as in like they do on headlights

@dingo ate my baby
That's funny but sad. I feel I'll never make my mars this way ;(
use this product then . I used it on a mustang I owned came geat. Like any paint light even coats suggestion put back paper first with hole on back first see if that gives disired color if so spray from back. But most likely super light painters tape front of lens and spray away. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000CPCRS6/?tag=oakleyforum04-20
 
Make circle with a cut out. spray till almost as dark as you want it to be , them remove outer ring of circle. Spray again when done remove inner circle . That should give ghost red and bright red for desired affect you want.

Will do. I ordered a set of positive red off eBay
I will try to work my way from outer in gradually getting the desired effect

Thank you for the support
Also spoiler alert
I'm working with a leathersmith to make me a medusa of my own since I am an average joe that can't afford the 1000plus price tag

Out of respect for Oakley he's not doing the center logo but as far as everything else goes it should be pretty damn close
