They look great!
I love how you left the reverse lights alone. What kinda paint did you use to smoke them out?

Wow Fiko! Nice setup with the blacked out headlights/tail lights.
Congrats!

I wonder why they didn't use a glossier finish to match the paint...

I thing they look really good the way they are...maybe add some gloss finish, but any darker and people might not be able to see your lights come on.
On a side note, is there a law about rear lights and tinting them? just curious, was thinkin of doin' mine...thanks

Looks pretty good...they seem to be a little dull. Did you want them to be flat like that? sort of looks like overspray on the side. I wanted to do that to mine but that is permanent. The film is totally reversible. Your headlights, fogs and of course lip look fantastic.
