Your front end has a sinister look to it.

I like your subtle smoked tints.

Good job on the tinting job, it definitely give the car some attitude and not too dark.

Thats kinda the look i was going for. Try to get rid of the cuteness of the car and make it more mean looking.

I think it's just the right amount of tint too. Just enough to take the brightness of the orange down a few notches. Good job.

This is the ebay company i got it from. Had a huge sheet enough to do my tail lights and headlights with a bunch leftover. Originally i was going to do the entire headlight and tail light but just went with only the clear portion for a cleaner look.

Heres how the back came out. Only did the chrome part to blend it in more with the body of the car. I painted the chrome bar on the trunk already color matched. So the chrome in the tail lights is really the only chrome left.
