i would also suggest smoking your tails. my friend did it to his black a4 and it looks amazing. ive also seen it done to some white cars i didnt mind. what you need to do is go to a auto place like napa and checker and pick up this "black smoke" spray. that way you can controll how dark you want it to. dont forget to wet sand

I have my lights smoked/tinted what the guy did was mixed clear coat and black then scuffed the lights and painted them. They look real nice and I have had them for a while and they havent peeled. However my car is black (01 4dr Accord), I would say not to get them tinted if the car isnt black.

use VHT nightshades, several light "dry" coats followed by 1 or 2 "wet" coats (dont use too much or it will run) and it will look like they came stock that way. Best part is you can control how dark you want it (fewer coats-lighter, more coats-darker) and if you F-up you can use goof off and it will come off completely.  Also it wont fade or peel, i did mine 3yrs ago and still looks as good as when i first did it
