For headlights, I'd go with the GTS (aka GT Styling) headlight covers. They're not expensive, and available at most autoparts stores. For taillights, I'd paint them with VHT nightshades.
Just my preference though.

Yeah. It's a spraycan. You spray the tinting on, let it dry. Then throw some clearcoat on there to protect it. Since you spray the tinting on yourself, you can make it as dark as you like.
