So today while i was at home i found all this old scrape tint film laying around so i decided why not tint my reflectors, as i dont have the time to bake my headlights just to clear them so after around 10 minutes i made a template for the reflector and cut the tint film this was the result what are your thoughts on this? is it good or bad, i personally like the way it looks. Sorry for the quality all i have is a phone

On darker cars mayyybe...but that just sticks out like a sore thumb on yours...

Maybe if the tint was lighter.

x2, but i think on even a darker colored car it still might not look that good , maybe if the turn signal was covered too, then it might be alright then

is it just me or did u slap an H badge right over the middle of a stock grill?

does kinda look like that

What do you mean? Its the inspire h and chrome grille molding on the original tl grille inlay plastic mesh which is painted white.

take closer pictures of how the H symbol sits on the grill, if you got the origional chrome bar from a inspire then i would say , but i would also say i don't really really like chrome on a whiter car, your car so alright with you alright with me, but i would say that more of the problem is the actual mounting of the H symbol

ahhhhhhh okay i see well i got the chrome bar from heel toe so it ,ay be the picture i noticed the second one looks kinda odd just the perspective from which it was taken but ya ill take a closer pic tomarrow as it is night now and the flash on my phone is junk, but it mounted almost perfectly on the orig grille as i said the mesh inlay is painted plastic so it may be that it is painted white instead of black that it looks odd. btw im new to the whole car customizing thing as this is my first car and im 17 so for me i have no experience with cars so sorry if i dont follow anything that well.

Is that the same grill thats shown in both these pix? Did u slap an H on a grill that is supposed to fit an A is what i meant because it sure looks like it, and thats just wrong.

don't worry every one was 17 at one point, so just ask if needed
but yeah you need the H bar first before mounting it, also btw that paint does not look it matches on the grill, so might need to be redone (but proably a better job then i could do)
also like you said the tint on the headlights being , just pull it off till you got the time to clear them or black them out

your not alone riley, me and phil (slushhyyy) are also 17, prolly the youngest ones on the site. You'll learn fast. :wink:

I wish i had a job , then my car would look like slushy's

R1L3Y

ya it is the same grill... i just assumed thats the same grill on both where do i go about finding an actual inspire grill the H with the surronding chrome is from an inspire it does fit very well so i just instantly thought that they were both the same, but i would deff get the actual inspire grill if i could as i have hopefully the money for it. also any idea where you can get a saber water fall grill? thanks for the help guys

the actual grill for the saber i think is the same (so you can keep your painted one, but the chrome bar behind the emblem (the one that the embleam touches) is different cause the two symbols are different shaped, so the need for different chrome bars,
also for the inspyre grill try heeltoe or maybe even ebay

R1L3Y

well the one the emblem touches is from heel toe it came with the H its not the stock acura chrome bar its from an inspire and oh i thought the saber one was the one jashaa had im like drooling over it and i just have never seen one online. i also thought i needed the grill i painted white to be replaced with one from a stock inspire but the chrome bar is from heel toe and so is the H.

then maybe it is the angle the picture was taken like said before
but yeah in the picture it looks like you plastered a H onto the A's chome bar
