Opaque or transparent vinyl?

also check out the auctions on ebay for the pre-cut film. I ordered the smoke tails and headlights and it came to like 50$ total and it looks really good!

I would rather spend some money and get your headlight or taillight painted, if you dont have the money tint is ok, Just dont know how that tint will hold up. But yeah its not a bad investmenet if you dont the cash.

I don't think its ricey at all. I think it would be sick if the both front headlights is tinted in a yellow like I've see on 350z. I would do it but i have MR VIII headlights. Its JDM racer style for me though. DO IT!

If you are gonna do it go with BlueBatMoblie....I have used his product on my DD (Celica) tails and it hasn't faded in the least. It's been on there for a couple years too! Easy to apply, cut to fight great! I have driven the car in TX, FL, PA and NC and never been hassled by the cops. I would recommend.
