Im running a white 550 and am debating on putting a slight tint on the headlights and tail lights from Laminex. Ive used the products in the past and never had any issues. Just wanted to see if anyone here has any pics of it on their car.

Looks very nice. Got any pictures at night? How hard was it to apple to the eyebrows and reflectors? Does it not want to peel off lol? Where did you get that cover on the front plate it looks nice and stealth.

Thnx! I ordered the tints from sticker city. It took about 3 hrs to do. The smoked covers on the front & back plates are from autozone. 6 bucks each. They kinda set off the tints. The covers are suposed to last, so I guess time will tell. I'll try to take some pics at night. The headlight tint only lowers the brightness by 7%. So the Xenons still are bright. I can see very well at night.

Your car looks great Mikey! It's hard to tell in the pictures, but what is the difference between the "iron" tint on your headlights and the "light smoke" on the tails? They look very similar. By the way, what type of rear spoiler is that?

My headlights have the headlight armor film. Slightly tinted to cut down on the brightness of the HID angel eyes. Very happy with them. My tinter installed it. Looks great.

Thx! The Iron tint on the headlights is lighter. 93% light passthru as opposed to 86% for the light smoke. The light smoke was just too dark for headlights. I took the pics with my phone at dusk. I'll take a daylight pic then you can see the difference. I got the spoiler from eBay.
