        Is that the term you kids are using for nice nowadays or you're saying you don't like it?

          Ha. Nah Ed...Just can't get down with the look of the Lamin-X, but it's cool...I know you're just using it to get the idea.

              You can get the film directly from Lamin-x. Runs about $40. Installs in about 10 minutes. The "light" tint cuts output by 18% or so. I have the stuff installed on my euro smilies. I love the look and can the light output is still better than the DOT sealed POS's that were on the car before.

                No doubt, sickest touring evar.

                Ed, I'll buy your lights when you upgrade. Or Vlad's angel eyes if he ever sells them.

                  I dont understand how the smoked film makes the headlights "look" bad. They come out looking smoked, they do hinder the light output but I think they look sick. If I was to ever get HID's for my high's as well, I would do the smoked film over my smoked ellipsoids to get them looking pitch black.

                  edit: Ed...your car looks amazing man. Does adding the smoked film help convince you at all to do smoked turn signal's or euro trim? I know you've herd it a thousand times and I like the amber on your car. It help's make it more unique but with the smoked lights I think it would look alot better with smoked turn's and euro trim or black sidemarkers. Maybe someone could do a pshop of that.

                  And yes that touring is fresh!

                      This is true....hmmmm. I doubt Ill ever do it, I just like the way the front of Vlad's car looked when you couldnt see any lights at all.

                        bmwm3n528, it's all good, I knew these would have mixed
                        reviews, more of a uselss mod if anything, my lights were really pitted
                        and these made them look new again, temporarily.

                        TJ, I'll let you know when I get the new lights, these are not that great though but if you want them they're yours.

                        formula driver, NOW smoked turns and euro trim will look better than my current US trim but my shit is brand new so that sucks.

                            Did you ever have smoked lights? I think they would look so good
                            on your e30.

                              Yup, I sure did. I liked them a lot but I am happier with my non smiley Euro's. I can't really explain why.

                                How bad could they be with Lamin-X over them?
