you also cannot tint plastic headlights/headlight covers as it does not stick and will blister due to the plastic "breathing" the other option is painting headlight covers with night shade.
cheers.
I did the JGTC look with my headlights with signage vinyl with 2 car shows once. In saying that, I also removed it immediately after each show.
just remembered a mate brought yellow headlight globes from revoloution they looked aiight.
is night shade just like smoke?Quote:

damn you sure that you can't use tint film on plastic? do you guys reckon i have to use tint film for the effect i want?
btw, where can i search to double check that it is illegal?
Use 'Model Car' Windscreen Spray on Tint. Works well on brake lights for that 'smoked' effect too.
Personally, I used headlight protectors and painted them black for my Black car, black perspex sheet cut out to cover fog lights and used the 'Model Car' tint paint to spray over my guard indicator repeaters and brake lights. Now my whole car is like a black hole, except for rims. Looks schweet!
friend got his skyline passed by the department of transport with blue tint on his headlights and licenced so i guess depends on ur luck

keep yourself away from cops........i'd say better not do it:)
iamhappy46: you painted your headlight protectors black??!?!?!? does any light get through from your bulbs? possible to get colours?
eg_08_wa: i assume his skyline is freshly imported?
LowEk: i was told that there are some tints that can stand some heat. ask your bro if there is.
bumography: rainbow tint is just clear tint with rainbow through it right?
Terry: i drive a EF Civic, cops probably say "that guy drives one of those 89 carbi civics, poor bugger" and thats that, never get a 2nd glance, so i wouldn't mind the attention :rolleyes:
