Smoked headlights and carbon fiber "eyelids" ( yey or nay?)

DreamM3 · Yesterday, 09:21 PM

Just smoked out my headlights and added carbon fiber "eyelids" to carry the carbon look up the grill a bit more. Still unsure about the whole thing. What do you guys think?

I’d lose the headlight tint and keep the eyelids. I run carbon eyelids on my BRG and it looks clean. Headlight tint does nothing but limit your light output.

Personal opinion at the end of the day, but I don't like either look.

I don’t get it.

Is that a tint film over the housing? If so, be careful. I had a tint film over my headlights on a previous car and the tint shrunk slightly over time and spidercracked the hosing

I like the eyelids but not the tint. I would go all yellow tint before smoke. Just me. Looks stealthy.
