Why not use clear red paint for the lens, if the kit has a clear one?

Model Railroad supply stores carry MV Lenses. They come in a variety of sizes and colors ranging from clear (like a headlight) to amber, green and red.

Most IR lenses I've operated with were such a dark red that they appear to be gloss bloack in color.

November 2000 FSM has a great article on building a late war panther with a nightvision rig on it. Even has how these "Sparrowhawk" units opreated and were comprised. Most of the article deals with the IR rig.
Great stuff!
