Tint Headlight Housing

I am not talking about blacking out your whole headlight Housing..

But you ever see on SUV's and Trucks like the Black Glass or Plastic on top of the headlight..

It makes the headlight invisible and ALL BLACK.. On A Black car it looks cool..

Is there something like that for the TL and also how would the HID's look through that..

From my friend's black mustang with blackout headlight lens, the light output will totally suck. You can try window tints. I wouldn't recommend it.

as long as the light output isn't too bad I doubt it is, He has a 98 Mustang and he never got a ticket in FL with them. Might be different where you are, or you might have azz hole cops.

I don't know dog, but i think black light covers cheapens the look of your car. Kinda like large vinyl stickers plasterd on the side of your ride......but to each, his own....

No there is no such thing as a blackish light, if you have a dark tinted window, put a flash light behind it and thats how it would look, well its not HID but still....the bright whitish effect of HID would be reduced too. His car looks good during the day time but at night its pretty stupid, the headlights can barely be seen 2 feet from the car.

i've seen them plenty of times, usually on trucks or mustangs in the area. i don't see the point. they can have the high beams on, and you still cant see ****. there's no way its legal.
