Headlight Armor Headlight Tint Pictures!

Here you guys go. The only problem I have with them is that they have a slight brownish hue. I am going to send the pictures to HeadlightArmor per our agreement with a Clear Smoke suggestion. I'll keep you guys posted.







That's my buddy scott in the driver's seat by the way.

Thanks Guys.

Tofu, that grill is my custom made one. It took a week to make it from cutting out the center slats, to painting and clearing it.

Installation is tedious, but not too hard. A hairdryer seriously helps with the curved part of the headlight. You'll have to trim off a minute amount of access material too. Finally, take your time smoothing out the bubbles because at first it seems like it wont work right, but remember swipe from the center out after your start from the inner corner. Two people for the job makes it 10 times easier.

Night visibilty is deteriorated some. Turn on the fog lights though, and problem solved. I am going to try and get some brighter bulbs other than the stock ones soon. Any suggestions on what brand?

I like my HID's but if you don't want to do that I'd go with the Silver Stars. They seem like the best 9007 bulb available for direct replacement

Looks great on silver, very nice. Are those permanent? I like them alot, but I would only want them on during the daytime. I had a set on my '92 Talon and I could take them on and off without any problems.
