+1 on the comments about the grill... but the smoke tint looks great... i'm curious as to how it affects visibility when in use... to the OP, have you noticed a discernable difference before vs. after???

Love the headlights blacked out. Not feeling the grill or headlight rings.... I think it's just too much, IMO. Less is more I think!

you going to do clear bra on the front end?
my only concern for is how durable is the water transfer to road debris? will it pit it and take the transfer off or is it as durable as multiple layers of paint with a clear coat?

LOOKS HOT - is interior done yet?

Some people are saying "tinted" headlights. They look to me like you opened them up and painted the inside. Which is it? If it's the latter, what is the process? Thanks!

Kirk...both...they were opened up and the interior were painted...then the exterior cover was tinted (30%) with Lamin-x protective shielding...
