I'm thinking to tint my headlight, anyone did it already? pls post some pics
what do you guys think?

 

You want to tint your headlight? As in smoke it out? It would look cool during the day, but night time visibility would suck *****.

But then again, I have a "thing" about headlamps. I've extremely picky about their aim, spread, color and brightness. I will tinker for hours and purchase multiple HID kits just to make sure I get all of the above correct or it drives me nuts.

 

i was thinking that will suck, but is gonna be like riding at night with smoke helmet shield, insnt?
my bike is almost all black and thats why trying to make it real black
how do you think is gonna look during the day with the headlights on? i was thinking to use 15-20% tinted film
is it gonna get hot and melt on my headlight?[:@]

bluefox - did you get the right HID kit for you? what is it?

 

They make actual tinted headlamp film..........you can pick up the transparent smoke vinyl at almost any vinyl graphics shop. I did my clear brake light in a red transparent vinyl because it was starting to yellow slightly. (and since the bike is red/black, looks pretty good too).

And yes, I have an HID kit. As long as you get an H7 HID kit, you'll be fine. The larger ballast kits are difficult to mount properly, but with some cutting shears and a little modification, they fit just fine. A lot of people go with the mini-ballast kits, but they don't have as much light output as the larger ballast kits. And if you do go with HID, get either the 4300k or 5000k temperature kit. Anything higher, and it'll just be a blue color versus a pure white.

 

where did you get the kit from? and how much you paid for it?
im not to smart at HID kits so...

 

would this one work for my bike? what do you think about the price?

watch the video in the middle of the page and towards the end you'll see how well the light goes through the tint. Its a safe thing to do, dont worry
