I don't think the headlights look that bad. Don't color match the tails for sure though.

the black in the headlights looks soo good because it really gives the evo a much more aggressive front facia. PLus it goes with any color, especially black!

Personally, I don't think it looks too bad. Go for it if it's your style.

There are cars out there that have same color in the lights. i.e. Ferrari, Corvette and some others. But it looks as if it's overspray when you see it in a Evo. The black color gives it a visual difference when looking at the car in whole.

I tinted my tails and side markers with niteshades, and i did my housings black ( on a Yellow OZ ) it looks sweet from the side... the black goes with the tinted windows....
