Tint Tail Lights e53 2001

I ran a search, but couldn't find much detail because I guess it seems obvious... but what do I need to buy to tint my tail lights black? I don't want the spray/paint because its irreverisble (so i've read). Hows the installation? How much does it cost?

Thanks!

Ill be getting my head/tail light tint tomorrow and will be installing it, Ill let you know how it goes. I first used night shade but it turned out like shit. I think tint will be the way to go.

I used the niteshades, and it took much more work than it should have for it to come out good. I basically had to apply multiple light coats, wetsand it, polish it, then apply a liquid emulsion finish wax over it for the right shine... The film tint would probably be the way to go.
