Tinted Headlight .. Some Pictures To Share
So I thought I'd tint the headlight similar to the C63's .. I tinted the headlight and fog light with film from Lamin X, the quality is great but I could not afford my time on every detail part of the headlight so It had some bubbles but only visible in close distance .. I personally thinks it flows with my black grill, middle bumper, roof, rain sensor slade, side mirror signal theme .. It makes my car look meaner in person especially at night ... the down side is that it elimates 10% light output but I think it's still acceptable ..perhaps I will need to switch on the fog light for brighter vision

Looks good. Just order 12% tint from Lamin-x myself. Yours looks like 6%, right?
Also, just Plasti-dip sprayed my grill, we'll have the same look, except my car is black.

Looks good, cleans the front up a bit and blends in very well with the silver paint.

Yeah just tried this and it's really not THAT easy...getting it to contour to the tail light curves (pre face lift), sidemarkers, side view marker, headlights and to just stick isn't easy...I saw klinh's method on how to do this but still kinda rough...any tips or pointers or....just take it to a shop with all my materials and have them do it for cheap?...haha...
Also got the same exact stuff that kevbahl has on his tail lights from the same eBay seller...
