I don't see a picture, or whatever you are trying to show.
Maybe it's just me though.

Try uploading to a photobucket or tinypic because sometimes alot of people hotlink the same image and it breaks

anyway what I have seen people usually paint the headphones white and go from there like radio or DJ headphones with a flat square surface rather than a round egg kind

Honestly, I think this sort of cosplay may be too advanced for you if you couldn't take the time to at least think of how you could've constructed the headphones, especially when a suggestion like painting headphones came as a surprise to you.

Actually, to make them correctly, most people purchase headsets, create attachments onto the headset to create the desired shape (mainly the earpieces, either out of foam or molds made from aluminum), spray paint a base coat of white, paint in smaller details however you see fit, spray with a matte acrylic finishing spray to seal the paint in place. Voila.

But that's just the headset. I've seen so many people screw up Vocaloid cosplays without paying any attention to detail. It's a really simple concept, too, but some things are difficult to translate into reality. Proportions of the cosplays are always wrong (And really, proportions can seriously make a cosplay look all wrong), especially the collar placement, and one thing people always get wrong... is that he has a tie-like scarf, rather than a sailor scarf like Rin.

But the most difficult thing about cosplaying Len is his hair. His hair is difficult to style a wig into, correctly. Also, keep in mind that Len is a young boy. Not shaving your legs or your face when cosplaying him would just be disturbing.
