Default smoked headlight overlay?

Does any company make this? I know there are some on e-bay, but i don't exactly trust e-bay products unless i have a personal review from someone. I would want a light tint, not a complete black out. any info or idea's would be appreciated. Thank you in advanced.

not sure its a good idea... the hids generate a lot of heat, and i would guess this stuff might melt unless you find a product that is for high heat.

rick sells a clear film to protect the headlights, but dont think its tinted.
i suggest that you contact him- he might have ideas for you.

some info in ricks light stuff is here:

I have been running the film we sell on both sets of light I have had on my car. Living in Texas, there is a lot of sand on the road. Another local owner needs to replace his lights about every few years because they get sand blasted. With the film on mine, they still look like new. The film is very thin and heat/melting has never been a problem. Our vendor does not offer a tinted film. But $40 to save a 700 set of lights is well worth the cost in my book. That is why we sell it. We use what we sell.
