For your headlights its illegal to put stickers on the housings to darken the headlight because it will reduce the light output. Its a safety hazard... Police officer or not, you shouldn't do the headlights that way.

The better way to do the headlights is to have the housing blacked out. This involves opening up the headlights and painting the non-reflective pieces of the housing with a good heat resistant paint.

When you black it out, it should end up looking like my car:
