Default Tinted headlights?

Trying to see if anyone out there has pictures of tinted headlights. preferably with that spray on junk. Just considering doing it because it is a cheap mod to cover up my horrible looking stock lights from 1997. thanks guys.

Why?

Wouldn't you want all the light output you can get for your headlights. I think headlights are one of the parts that = function > form.

yes that is true. but i have hid's currently and it blinds the hell out of everyone i drive by. so i could do with them being a little dimmer for a good look, if indeed it is. and if anyone has pics of either tinted or blacked out.. thanks fellas

I agree with Randy. Tinting your headlights FTL. If you're sick of the ugly '97 two-piece headlights, get some new ones. And then do this:

Pics of those? B7s come with projectors and I never heard of a reflector lamp for them - it'd be a downgrade...

Why are you running HIDs without the proper ballast? That's why your blinding people and being ignorant!
