I smoked a set recently,well worth the effort IMO 
You will need to make the crosses for the inner lamps though,Bazman on here has recently made a load of sets of these crosses,maybe PM him?
Im using Halfords homemake 100 watt rally bulbs in mine(not for road use?) and they seem ok for the money,bout £6 each.

It is meaningless to ask; which is real, 'real' or imaginary? It is simply a matter of which is the more useful description

Gonna use some high temp matt black paint from local motor factors, used it before on my rocker cover and pleased with the results it gave.
Should I maybe use gloss or will the shine from the lense give enough depth?

They were a test set in that pic.
Since done another set which look much better,heres a crappy pic
I used Satin Black spray then used Black sealant to restick the lenses back on!
Also painted the headlight rings Black too while i was at it
