Comment if you guys like the smoked look or OEM!!

[Pkdimmock]

Love the smoked. Def suits your car imo. You shoulda recorded peeling off that top layer. I love doing that 😂

[BarbieBellemare]

Love the smoked look! I have this car and am going to try it myself.

[teajae]

NICE! Wasn't sold on it until I put some on my accord! Worked well. Little easier with a heat gun, but comes out well.

[mikec]

Just watched your how to. Mine came out ok. Couple mistakes but not bad for 1st time. I'll go back later and redo it. Thanks.

If it doesn't affect the lighting at night by much, keep the tint

[wanDUUH]

Ive been waiting for someone to make a vid on how to wrap xgen civic headlights!! Wouldve been way better if only there was more light so we could see how you went and did those 2 parts of the light that sticks out..the top and bottom...😮‍💨 ive been struggling with those parts!...ive cut a slit on the corner parts and kinda fold it over...hahaha

[jpyoungiii]

It looks good and keep up the good work

[HugoTeixeira]

I actually like it smoked 👍🏻 looks like a pain in the ass to do it with out taking out the headlights on the car

[markvi_gti]

that blade you used scared me, definitely use a smaller blade when doing this lol

[ihaveaname]

Ehh I’m the same man 50/50 but like you said it grows on you lol, always been a fan of tinted headlights! maybe when you get your fog lights and tint em as well then yea it will look sick bro!!

[jhephoy]

Clear makes more sense it will not lessen much of the light output of the headlight imo

[sadmanakhtarseyam]

Does it affect the lighting at night or it is the same?? Can we please have a picture of the lights on at night?
Great job btw👌✌

[jjwill]

possible to tint the rear lights. I want to tint the rear. dont plan to touch the front as will impact the light output.

[faudzeemokhtar]

Do it both brah. It looks aggressively nice

[theedwardbrad]

It would of helped to spray down the surface & the sticky Side of the tint & squeegee out the bubbles.. well at least in my opinion. I’m getting a 16’ Ex & swapping out the stock headlights for the ones you have... love em. Will definitely add the tint on before installing😂 what % did you use?

[ThomasTardif-tpfr]

You missed a stage you should be using spray solution that will help you remove bubbles you should spray the film and the headlight with a water and very lightly soap solution couple drops of soap solution in a spray bottle.

[BrandonElliotSmith]

Even though it would be for a Tahoe w/ headlights nowhere near as narrow... Man if I can muster up the patience... TO BE DETERMINED lol....

[perjian]

It's a lot easier if you start by cutting down the sheet to a couple inches larger than the area you need to cover. Rather than just using the whole sheet as shown in the video. Just an FYI.

[michelled]

OEM is definitely a cleaner look. Our headlights have a pearlescent look to em in the light (which I personally like). Does the tint cover that up? Or can you tell?
