cut the part where the orange and red lenses meet with a dremel. then put it in the oven on low temp. pry off the orange lense with a flathead screwdriver. use the old orange peice as a template to trace a new piece on the clear prysmatic panel (home depot) re heat the tails in the oven and put the clear piece on. total it should cost you under $5. dont blame me if you mess up.

go to the hobby shop pick up model spray paint i think its called window tint or maybe smoke and paint the top half or all of it if you want till it starts looking tinted. if you dont like that idea get a candy or translusent red n do same thing to the orange part untill its the red you want.
do it in even smooth coats allowing some time to dry for best results.
