definetly stained glass paint is what you need not just regular paint. and theres an orange color you can use just do light coats until you get the shade you want.

They don't have the reflector like stock, and they just look like amber euroclears

You can get that paint off but most likely you'll have to sand it, and then use rubbing compound and polish to make the lenses nice and clear again.

Wow, I thought that was a joke, but seriously props for posting your mistake. Try going to a model store or hobby shop and look for Testors transparent paint. Then take the corners apart and spray the backside of the lense. I know Testors makes a transparent red, but I don't know about the amber or orange.
