The stained glass colors last I looked contained Toluene, if applied to the acrylic lens, you risk damaging it as it will soften and make it gummy. There are other translucent colors but you'll have to check for composition and whether safe for use on plastics.

The corners are made out of plastic. Headlights are glass.

both somewhat right and somewhat wrong.
89-97 LS400s had glass Headlights and plastic corner lights
98-00 LS400s have plastic lenses all around.
