IM looking to buy some sort of plastic fitting that can be placed over the outside of my headlights to give them the clearly visible split look instead of the headlight glass being all 1.they are plastic and have 2 holes in them like cup holders-does anybodyknow what they are called and where i can buy them from ?.the plastic bumper front and back and the plastic trim on the side of the car has faded to a dull grey,is there some kind of paint that will make them jet black again-what is this called and where will i buy it from ?.i live in the north west uk

Why do you want to do that? This would only "cheapen" your car and give it a tacky look.
Instead of wasting money on these "light masks", why don't you save your money and upgrade to an E36 headlamp from a saloon - which gives much better headlight coverage pattern (they are ellipsoid projector type - instead of the cheaper design that the compact uses). Plenty of used ones around for cheap.
If you are still unsatisfied with it, then add a real HID (Xenon) upgrade to it. http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.2565
For your plastic bits, go to places like Halfords and grab a bottle of "Back to black" or similar products.

check out www.bavauto.com. They have dress-up panels for headlight covers that alther the appearance of the headlights.
Meguiar's "Back to Black" will darken grey or chalky rubber and plastic trim.
