Monte Carlo is back! A lot of questions!

Monte Carlo is back! A lot of questions!
Well I had a bunch of problems with my Monte for the past couple months, all good to go now. But I am still stuck a little.
A while back I tried to use the NiteShade on my tail lights, and ruined them!
So now I am finally deciding to buy new ones before I get pulled over/rear ended because of how dark and crappy they are now. I was looking around for a little and cam across some LED Bermuda ones online, I believe that was the name. Anyways, they were around 300$, and could not find much of a price difference on Ebay. I have a white Monte, and am debating on getting the black or smoked lights. If anyone knows a good site to order these from/which ones would look better on the white car, let me get your opinion.
Also, my third brake light is messed up. So I see most tail lights you can buy do not come with the third brake light, so I need to find one of these too! I guess they probably would not come blacked out or smoked though. I had seen a guys Monte on CarDomain who had a designed third brake light that lit up saying "Monte Carlo", which I would really like, shot him an e-mail on there, not sure if he is on this forum somewhere, anyways if anyone knows about these let me know!
But, I am still not done, haha. The same guy on Car Domain also had black Chevy bow ties, I think this may have been mentioned on this site before, I will have to look around, but I figure most people paint them with a certain type of paint, but I was wondering if they sold them black online somewhere? Because if I ended up getting the black tail lights, I would want these black, and possibly just remove the Monte Carlo LT lettering.
And later on down the road maybe get some new head lights that would look good with the tail lights, but that will be long down the road, if I still have some money to survive after all this!
Haha, any info or suggestions would be great!!

i havent seen any sets of tails that come with the 3rd brake light also but i have seen those bermudas and right around 300 is all your really going to find them for because not many tail lights are being made for monte carlos, making the prices higher on the ones that are made, and you can find the 3rd brake lights that are leds on ebay too and they look pretty nice

Well, I just ordered my tail lights today, got them for $255 from StreetPros.com..
Now while I am waiting I am just going to get some mineral spirits and going to try to get the Nite Shade off of my third brake light, since I can not seem to find one on e-bay or anything. And then buy one of those decal covers for it, because they look pretty sweet
But how about head lights? I looked for a little bit and came across a few people on CarDomain.com with some Eagle Eye or Angel Eye projector head lights? I do not remember if that was the name exact, but they looked pretty cool.
Is their a way to just get covers for head lights, like black/smoked ones that are not sprayed on, so I do not have to spend $400+ on them?

Yeh I noticed that, the other guy I was talking to has the same one. I guess you can get it to say whatever you want? Although I would just make it say Monte Carlo, also.

They look like they would, well at least the 3rd brake light does.
Or I may save up for some projectors, just depends. Like these..

ohh didnt notice you had an 06
the headlight covers wont work in that case, the third brake light is the same tho on your vehicle as it would be on mine from what i heard, if i were you i would just get projectors
EDIT: those were also the projectors i was thinking of, i didnt look at them before i posted haha, but i cant find any covers for the 06/07's
