It still will be red but you did modify the amount of light output by dimming it so technically it is illegal but I don't think anyone would bother you over it. People do it all the time to cars and I've only heard of a few cases of being pulled over for it.

I have smoked lenses also from harley so they are dot aproved and not tinted dark. I don't think a cop cares as long as that are visible.
