I was going to tint the whole headlight but that didn't work out, so I jus ended up tinting the orange side markers. Let me know what you guys think?

Looks great but isn't there some sort of law about having orange side lights?

Most likely sense there's alot of laws that limit what you can do to your car.

it's illegal to tint anything on your headlights, but screw the law.. it looks good.

Looks nice! I haven't seen just the side tinted like that, but it flows well with everything, especially on that color of car.

no I just used some window cleaner and cleaned the head light. then laid the tint over it to pre-cut it, then I laid the tint on it.

I used window tint but I think overlays might work a little better sense its softer and easier to melt i think. I have seen other people use just window tint for their headlights so I'm guessing it will work fine. My side markers tint are holdin on pretty well.
