Default Tinted Headlights. A cheap mod that makes my

I finally got around to applying this vinyl. I thought it came out rather well and looks good with the black surrounds on the EK foglights. This will also have to do till I have the extra $800 laying around for the AP2 headlights....which may not be for a minute if the berk header delivers decent gains Comments are welcome.

Enjoy the pics.

Thanks for looking.

You should've wet sanded your headlights and then polished it, would've came out good. BTW, i think your foglights are on backwards. Correct me if i am wrong someone.

I just took a drive with them at night and I didn't really notice the HID's being all that much darker. I didn't order the really dark version because the seller warned it would be too dark for night driving and I really didn't want them that dark. I guess I can take a picture at night, but I can assure you that it wasn't that big of difference.
As for my fog lights possibly being on backwards....not really possible. If you were to see the backs of them you would understand. That and they have Right and Left written on them....they were made for a civic

Since these are just vinyl, I am sure I could still wet sand and polish the headlights if I so desired. Is there a DIY guide some where?
