Stock HeadLights Don't Look Good Enough

I just got a 03 sedan (dark blue) and I don't like the look of the stock headlights I find them a little buggy and round I've thought about tinting them a bit and painting the housing. If anyone has tried these or knows any other options

Why would you want to tint headlights? So they look cool...but you can't see ****?

Correct nightshdaing does not affect output. It's usually the DIY guys that lose visibility with "transparent paint"

Also, notice those rear tires are 2435/35! That is one wide tire.

How can you put a film on and not lose any output provided it's not a clear film?

It's just a physical impossibility to "tint" and not have a reduction of light.

I think his headlights are an outlier. Those look as if they could have been OEM, and I wish they were OEM lights.


I think his comment ws regarding the cheap, Ebay, chinese headlights with halos and LED's integrated into poorly fitting and sealed housings.
