Lamin-X comparison and thoughts

So I had some spare lamin-x (in "tint") laying around so I threw it on one of my headlights as I planned to have it installed this weekend to get an idea of how it looks and I'm not really sold on it:



Vs




Obviously the car is a bit dirty and the lighting is off so the stock photo looks better overall, but it should give you an idea. I think the picture gives it a bluer/purple tint that's not really there. But overall I think I like the stock lights a bit better .....I think. In any case some opinions would be nice and maybe someone going through the same dilemma can use these pictures to help them decide.

Looks good either way but if you leave the tint on you'll need black grills to pull it off.

I'd stick with stock but they don't look bad with tint. They seem to blend in with the car in the pic.
