You can do it with lens tint spary, sometimes called blackout spray from most motor factors.

That car could have his headlight housing painted ... It might not be tinted but I can't see that clearly ...

what most of the people do around here is buy R/C car tint spray, it comes in a little aerosol can and they also get the R/C clear coat. If you do it this way this mod. shouldn't cost more than 10 bucks.
Oh yeah, and if you're looking for a place to pick some of this up almost all hobby shops carry it:)

Don't bother going to a tint shop they won't do it.

yea like the people above said go to a hobby shop and the black transparent paint. I just did it to my tail lights... i think it looks sweet.

isn't it illegal to "blackout" headlights? unless of course you got a different set just for show purposes

I'm pretty sure it depends on where you live. At least in Michigan it's legal as long as at night when you have them on they project enough light out of them and at a far enough distance.

just smoke them enought so it's darker, but not black. the light would just look turned down a notch
smoked corners with amber bulb on EG looks really nice

can people have clear corners that still flash the stock orange light by just using an orange bulb in it? I was just trying to think of ways to keep it looking nice but not get pulled over.

yeah, i have clear corners with amber bulb
but getting amber vision looks much cleaner looking than clear corners

So if I were to get clear corners and then put the yellow lights in them do they still look stock in the daytime or do they still look pretty much white?

they make that spray on tint stuff. i think there's also some kind of tint tape. i'm not sure exactly how it works. maybe you could get a tinting company to tint your headlights? i'm not sure if they have the equipment to do that but its worth a shot. are you sure the headlights didn't come like that?
