Go to Home Depot and get yourself two cans of spray on lacquer, one black, and one clear.

2-3 coats of black lacquer will give you a "smoked" look, then 1-2 coates of clear coat over top
4-5 coats of black will give you a "blacked out" look, then 1-2 coates of clear coat

it looks awesome and it's alot cheaper than buying replacement tails, and it looks 10x better than those plastic covers
Sounds very neat and easy.

Any precautions ... or things to worry about ??

Awesome ...

Now that the wheels are decided, what about the tires .... ??
Non racing, less wear and 'noise', good snow traction ....

well i would suggest doing both at the same time, so that the coates are even. and also tape off the black peice on the bottom.
