after finishing it i had no light output at all lol
it cut the light out by atleast 50% so i just took it off... it looked so mean! i wish i can do it lol

so no front tint yet.. looking for another/better option


any input guys?

Have you seen my car? I used the same process as I did my tails on my HL just a little bit lighter (had my fogs tinted too, but now they are back to clear as they look better clear with my Halo'*..so this proves it is easily un-done)

I have 6000k HID'* and they are plenty bright...I would say it cut my light output down by about 25% since they are still brighter than halogens..

Like I said I had my Fogs done too, but decided to un-do them and simply wet sanded them down with 400 grit, 600 grit, 1200 grit and buffed them out and re-coated them with my magic HL coating I use when restoring Headlights down here.

PM me for more info.
