How do the tinted headlights work, and where did you get them from?
Thanks
Had the shop that did the window tint do the lights as well.

Headlights are definitely a little dimmer but I live in Cali so I don't run into too many super dark situations. And the brights still work well. The company that did the window tint also does wraps and other things so they put a smoked film on the lights for me.

Looks great! I've debated on tinting my lenses vs. going with the BAP treatment. Yours makes the tint a convincing argument.

I'd love to see the interior! I've been holding out for the Mabett grey seats. I'd love to see how yours looks with those carbon fiber inserts.

I will take some pictures tomorrow. My girl has it at work. The seat covers are almost black but seriously look like real leather. I highly recommend them.

2023 Hybrid on 22's. Lowered on Eibach's, ceramic tint including windshield, tinted head lights and tail lights, Mabet seat covers, rhino lined bed with roll up tonneau, and carbon fiber accents inside.

Wheels are Asanti black label. 22x9. The tires are 245-35r22. The overall diameter is .2 larger then the 225-65r17 that come on the xlt. Gas mileage has stayed the same so far but haven't been on the freeway yet.

Like the tint on the headlights. I am thinking about getting just the top part of my XLT headlights tinted this shade. Going to get PPF installed over the front including the headlights. Eventually I want to get the inside chrome removed. Using film for now will be good enough till aftermarket offers more affordable ones or I get brave enough to have them done.

Your tinted windows look great. What % of film tint did you use?

Yeah. I saw the Zep method to remove the chrome but was chicken to do it. Lights are way to expensive to replace these days.

They only do the ZEP on the taillights. The fronts I heard they heat up the light pry apart. Instead of painting inside the housings they use ZEP on the chrome outer part leaving the bulb reflectors chrome. They then reseal headlights together. I would worry about breaking something or melting the wiring.

Is that allowed in CA? In my area we have 2yr inspection stickers (for newish cars) so people just get it redone after removal & inspection.

This is beautiful. Fantastic execution. The smoked lights look great with the color of the grille bar on the xlt. And, in my opinion, this is the perfect amount of lowering; when the wheels are concentric with the wells it just looks so clean. Wheels really suit the look too. Bravo.

Do you have spacers, or is that just the wheel's offset?

This has me totally sold on Eibach springs when I eventually get my hybrid, though I will be going with 20s with more sidewall to contend with the frost-heaved and potholed roads of northeast Ohio.
