A lot of people asked v_therussian about sticking the euro sticker then tint on it, which he tinted then put the euro sticker. So me and v_therussian talked about me doing it since I'm about to start it. So here's some picture of my car tinted.(headlights and taillights) 
Hope you guys enjoy the picture, first time posting mods and pictures....
Will post better pictures after I wash my car, now to just get some rims and kits..
Preparing to add the euro sticker
Applied euro sticker
Applying the front tint, kind of hard to see the tint but in the day time you can notice it a lot
Applying the rear tint (IT WAS HARD A** F*** APPLYING THE REAR)
Before
After
It's kind of blurry but you can notice the tint difference from the other
Also added the RPI SCOOP, spray painted the grills, and LED side marker(gunna spray the chrome part black later)

awhile ago i tried to tint my headlights using the overlays off ebay, i used heaps of soap water, a hair dryer and importantly alot of time.
i still managed to have heaps of bubble spots. on the instructions they said the spots will dissappear after a week from the heat from the head lights but it didnt
so good job on your mod!

I got my tint from http://www.rvinyl.com/store/ShopCart.aspx, you have to take your time to squeeze all the bubbles out its hard sometimes you just poke it with a sharp needle and use the blower dryer to shrink it so it can release all the air and water. the rear tint was difficult thought, I can never get it perfect still got some line marks because of that one curve that sticks out in the rear but thanks...
