Talking tinted headlights anyone?



ok i was really bored and outta money and i had all this 100% tint lying around. so i decided to see how it would look as eyelids for my....black 99' CAMRY. but the damn headlights have these pointy thing on them, and me being a complete novice at tinting gave up after trying for two hours in the heat outside. then my dad rolled in with the merc how would this look on it ?? i did somemeasuring and after three tries got it to what i wanted , not too loud , just undestated to a point that a second look would be needed to really notice it. pictures are foggy coz of the humidity i had to wait forver b4 taking the pics...here they are:

before:


after:





what do you think?

EDIT:
did the back brake lights as well while waiting for your opinion. will post pics tomorrow cause my ****-camera cant catch the details at night.
EDIT2:
ok it seems i can catch the tint in the camera with the lights ON
