    Most tint shops have it/or can get it.

    And since I just had some work done there today, I will suggest Refine Automotive Salon. They do awesome work. They've done tint films on headlights/taillights on 2 of my cars now, and will go back to them if I needed to without hesitation.

    Tinting your lenses or operating your vehicle with colored or tinted light bulbs is illegal. Why would you want to do this?

    tinting your drivers and passenger windows are illegal as well. but why do people do it?

    tinting your headlights rarely change the color of the light coming out anyways.

    How can this statement be true?

    I wish it was not illegal to tint those windows, I would love to do it.

    headlights are too bright for window tint to alter the color.

    Go to the sponsor Tinting Illusions, they have that film, its called Ricochet, they have yellow and blue and clear and smoked

    The Ricochet stuff they carry isnt tint, its protective headlight coating exactly like 3M but thicker so its a good investment if your scared of rocks breaking/cracking ur headlights

    Well imagine if instead of writing that letter to the editor, she just posts on a car forum for car enthusiasts. That's Kritafo.

    If you go with blue and it actually ends up making your headlights look blue, I can guarantee you that many many cops will pull you over. These will be the same cops that will look the other way when it comes to an exhaust, but will feel that blue headlights is a worse offense owing to the fact that forward facing red or blue light is reserved for emergency vehicles only.

    I've heard good thing about Lamin-X. Icon down on 32nd ave near KFC always did my tints and they always do a very good job. A lot of member here agree as well about their reputation. Lamin-X will actually protect your headlights agains rockchips/cracking so it's not a bad investment.

    It won't be as blue as the one you've shown, it'll be a lighter blue.

    Thanks for the help, Im gonna call around today and tomorrow.

    By the way, this stuff only blocks about 5 percent of the light from that head light, and it might make the white lights have a little bit of a blue tint, no were close to H.I.D. blue

    +1 for Refine Automotive Salon

    PJ & Rich and the rest of the staff there are very friendly and they do great work!!!

    I had my Corolla's headlights and taillights done there and would definitely go back if I need any vinyl/tint work done.
