Looks great!
To tint the third brake light and or your tails, just take them off and get a can or two of night shades tint (rattle can) paint in on to how dark you want them and the clear it, I think there is two coats on my third brake light and 3 on me tails, but i painted to match most of my tails and them masked off an area straight in the back and just tinted, I can get some pics if you would like
i agree on ditching the bug guard, and if youre young why do you need steps 
seriously tho ditch the steps or get the retractable ones, those are tight.
you could paint your factory heads and fogs too that would give it a really good look, i think darrenws6 did a pretty good write up awhile ago.

2) BUy clearcoat from hardware store - ~$10
3) take off taillights/3rd brake light, tape off parts that you want to remain untinted (i taped off the clear reverse lights and bed access lights)
4) 2-3 coats of nightshades, leaving 15 minutes between each coat to dry.
5) 2 coats of clear, leaving 30 minutes between coats to dry. You can also lightly wet sand between coats with 2000 grit to get a nice finish.
done!
