they look loads better mate :wink: though I would have had them a little darker :P

may I ask why you went for tint film instead of tint spray?

Thanks mate. I couldnt get any darker film :(

I thought it would be a better overall finish, and thought if i didnt like it i could remove it. But i love it :D

The theme of my car is silver and black, but thought the fog lights could be tinted as the grilles are black aswell :)

Im keeping my headlights crystal clear as it gives the front end a clean look. 8)

Go for film like Greg did, least then if your not satisfied with the result you can just peel it off again.
Tint spray can be removed too but its alot more hassle.

Film FTW 8)

though spray is much easier to apply imo and you can increase the tint if desired much easier as well :wink: different opinions though, both do the job well
