Default lamin-x headlight protectors.

before i stuck them on they look really light which was nice, but when i put them on i think the black housing makes it look a lot darker than i anticipated. im still undecided on whether i really like it or just kinda like it.

oh and sorry for the dark pics, i just got it home from being detailed for the kamispeed meet and put these things on and it started to rain so i pulled it into the garage and it was kinda dark already...








the stock hid's now have a purplish tint to them. i havent driven at night yet, so im not sure how/if visibility has been affected. in these pics they dont seem to be as dark as they seem in person. there will be daytime pics come sunday after the meet tho

oh and btw, super duper easy to install. our headlights have easy curves

My experience with them have been on halogen-based headlamps. They provide protection, but I've noticed that they scatter the light badly, increasing glare. They're probably OK with HID projectors, but I would probably never use them again.

they are actually really easy to install. all you need is a haridryer to heat the vinyl and it molds very easily. i have done about 7 cars now. car looks good!
