is this a bad solution?

i must find a cost effective way to reduce the ugliness of my amber eyes on my E90!!!

MichaelATL · 01-17-2007, 05:34 PM

i am talking about just smoking over the amber... not the entire headlight ...

daheechang · 01-17-2007, 06:44 PM

hmm. usually not the biggest fan of smoke headlights, but since you're talking aobu tjsut the amber, i'd be interested in seeing it.

PICS! NOW!

canucklion · 01-17-2007, 08:21 PM

Michael, I think either go all black or euro headlight, no in-between,
if you smoke it, I think the amber's gonna appear "dirty", not quite black, and not quite amber

Smoking the corners looks really cheap, I wouldn't waste your time, the orange isn't that bad..

it isn't that bad and i won't do it but i needed to see some pics...

though the fact remains that the euros look 10x better, especially on a black car.

mtkid · 01-27-2007, 09:36 PM

yeah, I got it covered with vinyl. I was considered smoking it, but the tint place I went to did not recommend it.

mds82 · 01-27-2007, 11:07 PM

looks kinda fake to me. i guess to each his own though

SES_D · 01-27-2007, 11:11 PM

Smoked ambers would only look good on JB cars

E90T · 01-29-2007, 04:41 PM

Looks terrible, don't do it.

shragon · 01-30-2007, 12:37 PM

i haven't one that looks good yet. leave it amber or drop the big $$$$$ and get the euros.
