Neither, leave them be lol. That being said, I would try some sheet tint rather than the spray on stuff. If you want to revert, there’s really no getting the spray off. Good luck.

Tinting your headlights so it's harder to see or tinting your tail lights so you make it harder for others to see you?

If you're doing fogs, Lamin-x has worked great for me, and the yellow color helps in snow storms. Wouldn't recommend doing any of the other lights though.

I was thinking about doing the brights or the lower marker, but not the main light itself

Would say no, just NO! Lol but if you want to do it it is your truck... I would do film that way easier to change if you want to change it or remove it.

Go for super dark tint and just smash them with a hammer. Chicks dig it.
