Yea I noticed that too now, more and more people are tinting the headlights. I admit it's starting to grow on me though. Good job on the tint Swoope!

looks good swoope

agree with u guys.... deedubb was the first to tint the headlight (lamin-x type) shown at sevenstock.. i woulda been second if i didn't feel the need to get my headlights replaced due to water inside... :( i have the film lying around the house.

this is the put on take off stuff... i think i might have it done buy a pro, but a little bit lighter...

but i have to give it a couple of weeks.. as dark as it is i am amazed but how little it cuts the light at night.

looks awesome swoope,

i had a question since i just turned my car total stealth mode (blackout headlights, blackout tail lights and all the badging blacked out)

have cops messed with you at all for the headlights?..


my tail lights i went lighter tint so you can always see some red.

I've had my headlights tinted for a while now. I had the Evo-R eyelids as well but I'm not satisfied at all with them. They are way too thick and the color doesn't match my car, it's too blue.

i want the cf evo r front lip so bad. don't know if it'd look right on my SS. looks great on your gray though!

i got different rubber tubing than came with the kit.... it cost a buck.... it goes between the lip and the bumper...

then two screws one on each side... i have to work on it.. would like to do a quick release somehow...

but it is fine has been tested to 121 mph.. the cf stands out on the silver more... looks real good..

i just put it back on, the film... i did a better job this time... bubble free.... the hard part is trimming to the eyelids.... this time i pulled the lids, put the film back on as it was trimmed before.. then put new tape on the lids. but backed it up a bit..

worked much better..
