You're basically placing a layer/film of something over them, obviously it will change the light output. Don't think they're legal, people get a hard time about tinted corners and tails, I can't imagine headlights.

Bada bing, Mooneggs to the rescue. It's classy, clean, and looks hot.

to answer the OP: you should check your local laws to see if black covers are even legal... and IMO I think it looks very tacky...

and my solution isn't exactly cheap or easy... black projectors would be another good option

Your in Ontario, so not legal if you drive the car after dusk and before dawn.
