Strip the tint from the outside, open up ur headlights and tint it from the inside. That way it doesnt look dull...

same here

I first thought that he meant he smoked the housings and it has leak (moisture) but guess not... which I rather smoked the housing or get a smoke housing cedia lights, it will match your theme better IMO

but nice job though..

Ack...looks blurry and out of focus. Reminds me of how headlights use to look, opaque-ish and full of textured gridlines on the surface. While today, headlights are clear so you could see through them. I guess the purpose of the old textured headlights diffuse the light so they didn't appear as bright to oncoming traffic.

I believe that is either the VIS or the Seibon Evo style CF Hood. I perfer the Erebuni Racing hood myself

I don't care for the smoked look.... I had smoked my stockers and only had about 70% of the light coming thru. Not a good idea IMO. After about 2 weeks I just ordered the Black housing DEPO headlights, they look 10000000 x's better too. just my .02!!
