I self tinted my headlights and fogs, 20%. That part came out fine, however I need some second opinions. I'm not sure if I think it looks nice or ricey like the title says. I'll post more pics if needed.

 

what do you think of it?

the popo might not like it..
how's your light output?

 

rice. anything you do to your car is 90% going to be rice.

 

Light output is definitely hampered but those bay lights are bright to begin with so at night I can see okay.

Cops definitely might be trouble, though I've never have problems with my tail lights being tinted so I might be able to get way with these as well.

 

Kinda defeats the purpose of having headlights doesn't it?

 

Did you just screw up a pair of 5.5 HIDs? tisk

 

The headlights aren't that great to begin with, and the dark tint probably kills whatever output they do have.

Would have been a lot classier to just bake them open and black out the paint, leaving the reflectors chrome.

 

i agree. i see youre goin for the all black stealthy look, but it still would have been better to "AE" the lights

you shoulda just gotten those ABS headlight covers, you can snap 'em on and off, i had em for my 4th gen

 

Hmm thanks for the input. I will say they arent actually that dark the picture just seems that way, their much more permeable irl.

 

What about 30-35% tint on there? Probably will look the same, and will give you a bit more output perhaps.

It doesn't look bad. It goes with the theme you're using...I'm not a big fan of that look in general, but it doesn't look bad.

Oh, and it does look rice, but that's what you wanted right?

 

It's gone from a nice blacked out look to looking like you took a few gallons of black paint and slathered it over everything.

 

I hope you tinted them with vinyl

 

Im not really feeling the tint on the headlights...on the fog lights it looks ok. IMO If you did a tint in the shape of an "eyelid" on the top part of the headlights it would look better than having the whole light blacked out

 

Hmm ya thanks guys, I really wasnt sure so I thought I'd ask.

 

looks like ebay projectors to me

 

RICE!!!!!!....u mine as well jus take out the headlights and ride around like dat

 

why does it look like you sprayed your front bumper with spray paint in a can? but i say you keep your stock headlights and just change out the bulbs if you are looking for a look! and you blacked out ur grille for why?

 

it does look like he spray painted his bumper with a can of spray paint...

 

I see a blue 5.5 in the rear, steal the lights off of it and never paint or black out your lights again lol

 

That's cause everything this kid has done has been retarded

 

Shoold haz tinned it red so ur car wil bee lik supper engry w/ blood-shot ice and every1 will gtfo of urway n u b koolz.

lol i donno. i think it looks aiite if you're not worried about 5-0s on ur tail.

yeah, red headlights is a really smart idea. doesn't sound like it would cause a head-on collision at all. Other drivers definitely know the difference between red headlights coming towards them and red taillights going away from them.

 

hahah wtf.

 

if teys cantnot tell teys go on wromg sid of teh rode than teys dont bellong on teh rodes n get sum glossis. i getz teh commiplimens all teh tymes

sarcasm > j00

 

dang that gives me a headache trying to read it. reminds me of b20vtec.com where its all uneducated honda owners that type like they talk lol

cant really decide whether i like it or not. im leaning towards no.

 

but I have a JDM maxima, so I'm always on the wrong side of the road

 

Looks eh to me. If your gonna keep them then your definitely gonna need some HIDs to help the output. Text me man!

 

Its ok. Not great. Not ricey. I thought it meant like something u add on which won't give u performance? Like a stock honda with 5foot wing and 7in muffler?

But anyways just take it off and get the covers like the other guy said. I use my covers only when I dnt want ppl to really see what I have cuz lately a lot of maxs been getin stolen or parts taken off

 

Is that overspray on your license plate?...


Oh, and ditch the tint.

 

i hate when ppl with black cars let the black get to their heads... when the black is getting to be too much thats when things go downhill for me, too much of one thing isnt good... i like to see cars with some kind of theme, the whole stealth look is terrible IMO, but if u like it then cool...

 

OVERKILL!!!
You just killed the overall look of your car. Blacking out some things is cool, sidemarkers tails and etc. but to compeltely black out the headlights looks like $hit. Its just too much.


IHAVEA2KMAXIMA,
Please, learn to type a sentence that educated people can read!!!!

 

............ why should ihavea2k type any better??? he's not in a spelling bee or grammer competition, he's on the internet he cyan tipe watevr as long as u get it then who really cares??? who cares if anyone in here has a masters degree in typing on a car forum???

^ hahahha, having a little too much fun there ihavea2kmaxima

 

Well if he wants people to know wtf he is saying he should, if not then why even type anything. Misspelled words is one thing, but doing it intentionally to have cool internet grammer is just retarded.

 

Then shouldn't your SN be Flavor 24/7 instead?

 

Please accept my sincere apologize for my childish behavior on the internet. I know I acted inappropriately over the internet and I just wish that you can find it in your heart to forgive me via a post in this thread. My grammar isn't perfect nor is my English, but I'm studying real hard in my ESL classes just so I can impress you with my proper English posting on teh Org.
