Yeah its tinted from the inside. The chrome housing is replaced with a dark grey housing, which looks awsome btw..

How come some C63 have it and others don't. Is it linked to the Bi-xenon light package?

Yeah it is. If you got the intelligent headlight system, you will have the tinted casing.

Does that mean no C63's in the US have the tinted headlights, or all of them have it? Or only those with xenons have it?

Anyone have pics comparing the tinted and non-tinted headlights?

Simply put, if you ordered the P2 package or your car came with the P2 package, you will have the dark grey headlight housings. Otherwise you will have the chrome housings. And yes, the P2 package includes xenon headlights, so if you don't have P2 then you will have halogen headlights with the chrome housings.
