Black/Smoked or Cleared?
Whatsup guys?
Lately, I've been very confused as to what path I should take to for my TL. I want to change the theme, in a way. I will be ordering the roof overlay from Blue Batmobile and have also been considering TL-S tails. However, I figured that if I am buying the roof overlay, should I go with a black theme? Or should I go with the cleared tails theme? Any suggestions are welcome and most appreciated. Photoshop can help too. If anyone is proficient in photoshop, please reply and I can send you pictures to help me out. Thanks in advance guys.
Oh yeah, My TL is AM.

The roof overlay is a black vinyl sticker basically that makes the roof black, lol. It is easily applied and easily removed. Blue Batmobile has a thread in the sponsored sales and group buys section of the BM, check out the pics on page 2 of his thread.
I like the black theme too but what do you guys suggest I do to the headlights/tails/sidemarkers?

Yeah I probably will get the TL-S tails.
Al, good looking out.
Clearing my headlights my be a problem though. Kinda don't want to mess with that and risk messing up the headlight.
Black hood might come after a little while.

+1 for cleared and blacked out. you should look/compare at them in person though to get the full effect. 
Keep in mind that the turn signals won't be as bright since the chrome parts are blacked out, but they are just a bit dim and still visible .
TLS tails and sidemarkers are a must on AM.
AM FTW!!!

To clear your headlights, you dont have to buy other headlights right? In both my my legends, I just broke the orange reflector inside and shook out the broken pieces, and it looked perfect.. How hard is it for these?? Anyone know>?

I believe it is the same process. If you do a search, there is a big DIY thread.
No, you do not need to buy new headlights...unless of course you fu*k yours up in the process.
