Default Anyone in or Around Raleigh do their own Headlights?

Hello,
I was wondering if anyone around here, or in NC did their own headlights (Painted Black + LEDS Maybe?)? If so, I was wondering if anyone would help me do it? When it comes to DIY stuff, I am not very confident, and getting this right is important... Well, if anyone is willing to help, just let me know, and I would greatly appreciate it (Plus $, Beer, whatever...)

Thanks!

I am very curious about this too because my frost left head light has a hair line crack in it so the head light is fogged up a little and I wanted to know if theres a way to take the lens out and clean it...... anyone have a clue how to clean the inside of the lens?
