Blackmarket rarely has then used so you could buy it new from here:

but buying them new is very costly

there are how-to's on clearing/opening heads around, I'm too lazy to find one for you but run a search and you'll find one.

If you want to save a little money you can open up yours and just paint them. I cleared mine out and with the new grill i'm looking to upgrade to the '03's as well. Here is my DIY for clearing:

Once they are apart it shouldn't be a problem to paint 'em. I've seen several guys paint 'em black or even body color to match the car. Good luck!
