I bought that exact kit for my taillights. It's a bit of a pain, but it came out good, I would recommend it. Me personally, I'm going to have mine painted soon.

I used to have mine smoked. We ended up doing something different to it, but I want to change it back to the tint look. Tested it during the day and at night, the lights are still visible thru the tint.

You can either buy a plastic piece that covers the whole light, or you can get a can of spray tint, or you can just use a roll of window tint (which is what I did). The plastic cover piece can come off and on, the spray is permanent, and the window tint is also removable. I have heard that the window tint isn't thick enough to handle the heat from the lights, but they worked well for as long as I had them on. It was pretty easy to put them on and looked good. I know a roll of tint costs about $15-20 for a whole roll. Not sure about the spray or the covers.
