Default Headlight and Taillight covers

Hey guys.
I have had headlight covers on my 01 LS for about a year now, but I wanted the blackouts. I cannot seem to find them. Mine are smoke.

Also, I wanted to get some for the taillights, but the only ones I can find are the ones that stay on with tape. I would like to avoid this because a buddy of mine had them and they fell off.

Any ideas?

Thanks!
Brian

my buddy paints his bike alot so he mixed black paint and clear coat to it in the right mix and mine are black then the lights are off but when on they look smoked but when the brakes are on its nice and legally bright. i have not gotten pulled over at all and passed inspection with them like it. i didnt even have to upgrade the tail light bulb itself either. i'll try to get a pic of it at night if you are wonderin about it.

yeah, just test the heck out of it to get the right mix. Otherwise, you could always use VHT Nightshades. http://vht.carshopinc.com/product_in...id/56334/SP999

that gray monte is the best
are they the smoked headlights?
the rims are nice too.
All black would look even better (opinion)
