that was the plan. i was also told using a hair dryer to shrink the tint to the lense worked good. also, it was recomended that i dont use anything darker than 35%. you used 20%?? is the light still visible??

Funny you say that lol. A friend has a blacked out front end with 20% and it looks good. (He has the "gts" fog and head light covers.) The 5% doesn't look as good in person. Id stick with the 20%.

EDIT. FOUND A PIC! Thats 20% on the corners. They look a little darker than they are in this picture
