Testors makes transparent spray paint. Comes in small *** cans - go to your local walmart, or for more money - hobby shop, and go towards the models and the paint should be right there. In walmart its like $1.69/ can and one can is pleanty for any taillights/headlights/side markers.

I sprayed mine with transparent black paint and it matches my car nicely bcause i've got a black hatch. you can get the paint at hobby shops for sure. and don't make your tail lights too dark or you may get pulled over.
