Get some MHW's them sprayed ones just look really 90's to me.

Or you could wrap a pair of tighs round them, which is also a 90's thing.

i once had some fully tinted black standard ones like shown above and they went though a MOT
shouldn't of passed as the dont reflect light but the tester said "you tinted them after "

mask off the reflector and tint them, shouldn't be any problems
