I think he meant

Instead of tinting your c63 headlights, you couldve traded him your headlights for his

so that he could have the dark c63 headlights

and you can smoke the stock ones because it would make no difference
and it would be a waste of a nice c63 headlight, when you couldve just done it to the regular headlight for the same ending result!

I'm still not following, because even if he were to have traded and smoked the non C63 headlights, he would then be left with the chrome housings on the inside which would negate some of the "stealth" effect created by smoking them in the first place? I would assume someone who wanted to smoke the lens on the outside would also want the black housing on the inside as well?

I kind of see where you're coming from but depending on how much it was smoked i dont think it would matter, would you agree?

Jeffield did you paint the fog light housing? and do you have other pictures of the front of your car with better lighting? I am going to do a very similar set-up with the grille, headlights, side mirrors, back emblems, and even paint the roof black also... I have a white one too so more pics would really help

The black grille looks a little weird in that lighting when you can see through behind it…
