      nah it looks nicer white cuz it contrasts the black perfectly

      I think it will protect your headlights from sun and element damage. Looks good.

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

  • @teajae8809
    @teajae8809 4 года назад +3

    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.

    Smoked! Helps protect and keep clean

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

    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.

    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

  • @alenric014

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

    • @accordance73
      @accordance73 3 года назад

      thats what i was thinking, removing the headlights would be easier plus you can wrap the wrap around the back edges to give it extra grip

  • @ihaveaname05
    @ihaveaname05 4 года назад +1

    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!!

  • @markvi_gti
    @markvi_gti 4 года назад +3

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

  • @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....

  • @jjwill9982
    @jjwill9982 4 года назад +2

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

    • @ChrisLowpes
      @ChrisLowpes  4 года назад

      Yea it’s definitely possible but I don’t think I will

  • @jhephoy510
    @jhephoy510 4 года назад +1

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

  • @nidakdilahk9204
    @nidakdilahk9204 Месяц назад

    Why don’t you take the head light out then tint it and put it back in?

  • @perjian1697
    @perjian1697 2 года назад

    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.

  • @sadmanakhtarseyam5193
    @sadmanakhtarseyam5193 4 года назад +2

    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👌✌

  • @daynerampersad8968
    @daynerampersad8968 4 года назад

    why dont you get a set of 2020 headlights with the black housings which give the same effect without sacrificing the light output

  • @cirwo85

    Tint makes it look more from future/better. But set minds on things above where christ is 👍

  • @theedwardbrad48
    @theedwardbrad48 3 года назад

    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?

  • @michelled2764
    @michelled2764 4 года назад +2

    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?

    • @ChrisLowpes
      @ChrisLowpes  4 года назад +1

      The tint does cover it up, I’m a big fan of that pearl look too. I think I may keep them clean.

  • @bennyquilantang4868
    @bennyquilantang4868 3 года назад

    Only takes 5 to ten min to take off the eyebrow trim above the headlight makes it easier

    Honestly they look pretty much the same. May as well not tint them on my opinion. However it would work well to protect the headlight.

  • @solidmasta1
    @solidmasta1 4 года назад

    Hey Chris I’ve been following you since you got the 10th gen, I put almost everything you put on that car , but with all those bolt on, it is good to stay on tsp? Or get a tune on a dyno?

    • @ChrisLowpes
      @ChrisLowpes  4 года назад

      The tsp tune is safe but you can maximize your power with a custom tune

  • @truescotsman83

    Does it lose light output by much?

    • @bmacster1985
      @bmacster1985 2 года назад

      When a buddy and I did it to his older mustang a while back we just went to autozone and got a set of 8 or 10K bulbs and it helped offset the slight loss of light, and it also helps the dim the bright white/bluish glare those bulbs seem to give off.

  • @Julio-bc7pj
    @Julio-bc7pj 3 года назад +1

    dude that is too dark, my first vehicle i got them darker than your and i couldn see the lights on at night (candle/low bright) i do not recommend super dark but it looks sick, i been using light smoke on my latest cars including my civic. Light smoke trust me amigo, you gonna lose a lot of the headlight brightness. thx for the video
