Default Tinting Headlight Lens
I've noticed alot of RSX's in my area with color tinted headlight lens. I like the look, and wanted to tint my HB's lens. I already have the ion blue(oil on water look) lens, and want to tint them either yellow or a goldish orange. What kind of paint do I need to get to tint the lens? Any one done this yet? any pic,suggestion would be great.
Thanks

I was thinking about tinting my headlights a smoke tint but decided against it. I think the red is friggin ugly though. It might look ok if the tint matched the color of the car, but I think I'd have to see to know for sure.
