For the front only you can use the tinting becasue the surface does not have anyrare curvesike your taillight does, besides I think the front lights dark do not look nice at all.

Thanks T! This guy is in NY, so I'll call him and see what he says. I can't go 3 days without my lights, so I'll need to figure something out.
Jon is member here, and does a nice job!

I decided to test this stuff out first. It only does the clear portion, but this is the main part I wanted tinted anyway. If I don't like it, I can remove it and it only cost me $20.

Just back. I don't want to tint the fronts. A lot of members on here that did it, don't like the look and went back to normal. Plus, I want people to see my AIB's.

I'll post pix when I get them.
