i've seen it done several times and as long as you take your time and do it properly it should turn out great. i've used VHT niteshades in the past with good results
I just saw a kit on ebay that includes smoked covers for all the exterior lights for $19 and change. I didn't look to see what the material is but that would be an option.
I just installed a set of clear front turn signals on my g/f's '06 Legend Lime Pony. It totally changed the look of her Stang. I'll be buying a set of tinted/smoked front turn signals for my '07 alloy.
Degeze, that paint looks awesome. How did you go about doing that? Did you have to remove the whole front bumper cover to access the turn signal housing?
I have done it so much I can remove the turn signal housing from under the car now. If you haven't removed them before, I think the easiest way would be to remove the front splash guard in the wheel well.

Degeze is correct, the easy way to do it is to turn you tire all the way (right or left) so you can gain good access to the splash guard. You remove 5 plastic screws (I think?) that hold it in place along with the 3 metal ones at the corner. Then the splash guard can be removed and you will have complete access to your turn signals.
If you're still undecided, check mine out. I'm in love with these smoked lights on my car. As far as installing these lights, it was very easy. I can do a write-up for you if you want me to (it's gonna take a while though).
Let me know if you have any questions.
