Stay away from duck tape (duct tape). Its high-tack or permanent adhesive is great for leaving a mess at best, or removing paint at worst. Even racer's tape can sometimes hurt marginal paint.

Try low-tack painters masking tape. You can get this at home centers like Home Depot, usually in blue. Cheaper than racer's tape and works good for headlight, taping the front of magnetic numbers, protecting wheel arches, etc.
