Default Tinted Headlight TC Pics Hook Me Up

If you got smoked / tinted headlights on your TC or got some pix hook me up. I'm giving the idea some thought. How much will it dim my 6000K HID Projector headlights at night?

Also if you have em, tell me if you have any any law enforcment issues because of them.

Thanks alot guys!

I dont see the point in smoking headlights... If anything, just to eyelids. You'll have issues with the amber reflector not being visible since your in Cali.

tickets, they can get you for smoked reflectors and low beams as well as blinkers. it looks good depending what else you have done to the body.

FOUND THEM! CRAPPY CELL PICS! LOOK WAAAY BETTER IN PERSON!! I must warn you! Before you do this remember that it will hurt your lighting a little. mine aren't that dark, but i still noticed my lights were a little dimmer on the road.

ahah good luck here in cali with that, you will be pulled over no doubt. especially during these times. i just got another window tint ticket(the 3rd one)not including the 2 tailight tickets... anyways the tint ticket hasn't been due for awhile soo iv'e been waiting to take it off and i have been pulled over! ahah i tell them yeah yeah i know i already have a ticket for it but it's not due till next month. they are hungrryyy. the ticket is like 170... and with headlights and taillights they will usually make in non-correctable...

Why would they write it as non-correctale when it is...Every fix-it ticket I've gotten (Alot cuz i used to have an EG civic) it was always $10 and a cops signature. I'd go see the judge before its due and try to get him to change it to correctable because it is.

As much as I like the look I dont think Im going to do tint on my lights anymore to avoid the hassle of tickets per your guys' advise. Its just I have an 08 TC and like the projector part of the lights but not the look of 3 silver circles.

they can make anything non-correctable if the cop is an ****!


ohh and for the 3 rings in the headlights maybe you can do a custom job and paint them black kinda like yellowxhoodie did with the rings in the back but painted them white...
