dark tints is the only thing I'm definitely not gonna get. The ceramic tints I have now, I have nothing but praise for them.

1. Good night visibility
2. From an angle inside of the car cannot be seen, it reflects
3. Excellent heat blocking
4. Do not get scratched easily
5. Lifetime warranty at any Huper Optic dealer
6. Will never get a tint ticket

Looks good! Suggest a 3M PPF over those newly painted parts, but only after the paint cures....

I had a detail a few months ago, 2 days later someone put a huge mark across my hood...which I later rubbed to make worse.

I'll get it detailed again sometime closer to summer.

I was gonna leave early to be there at 10am as the grill is gonna take a good amount of time. Dunno if it's worth it for you to wake up that early.

Hows the difference in light and is there alot more heat?

I thought the 50w ones washed out the color.

50w 3,000k actually bring out more yellow. My 35's seemed greenish.

50w are brighter and I would guess there's more heat. Our fogs are big enough to handle it I think, just make sure it's pluged in tight or it will burn through your bumper and set the car on fire...

Definitely an improvement, only thing you need is a shot of clearcoat over the red portion of the grille. Just mask off the rest of the grille (don't even uninstall) and seal it off.

Maybe just one heavy coat then that you'll be able to sand and buff a bit.

I must say though it goes with the rims. The red and black in the front quarter shot looks good.

I think it just needs to be wet sanded and another coat of clear so its a bit more glossy and your good...
