Has anyone tinted their headlamps using the headlamp tint paper, rather that the traditional cover? If you have, can you please post some pics

Thanks for the link. They have kits for around $60 for headlight and taillights and $20 for foglights. But as of right now they don't have any kits for the '08 C Class models. I emailed them to see when they would be available and will update this thread when I hear from them.

No problem. I'm sure they'll come up with a kit or probably have one in the works.

please let us all know what you know when you know it.

guys thanks for the links. Oh and i checked, there is not thread about DIY headlamp tints, there only professional ones that require the removal of the headlamps.
I was thinking about buying the sheets on ebay, and cutting them myself, im just curious to know if it would look bad. Anyone see a car with the tint paper on the headlamps? Did it look cheap? Im trying me best to make the c class look elagant yet, very unique

Heard from back from lamin-x.com today. Get this, the W204 kits were completed yesterday. They just put them up on their website today.

They have a headlight and fog light kit for $55. Seems like a good value to me. Now need to decide between clear or smoke.

Here is a link to the items

X-pel has had smoked, colored and clear kits for the W204 for a while.

I had .40 mil clear on my Passat headlights and Fogs. The heat from the fogs put a black burn mark right in the center of the film. I'm not sure if the C's will do the same. The headlight film still looks new.

Fog Lights seem pointless. Headlights look good it not so dark it looks purple/blue. Tail lights... well we all know what tail lights look like smoked lol. Its all about the quality of the tint, the person putting it on, and also the color of your car. Black and white cars, no question about it looks good. Other colors are hard to say IMO.

I think I'd rather just have the clear on the fog lights, even if I tinted the headlights. Only $15 more to order extra fog lights.

BTW: I inquired how much light output the tinted headlight covers blocked and they said ~7%.

I'd go with the light blue for the fogs

what color you think would be closest to the C63 smoked headlamps??
