Has anybody on here tinted their headlights and taillights or either of them. I’m thinking of doing both just to give it a cleaner look but I wanted to see if anybody has done it to get an idea on how it would look. I’m thinking of doing 20% smoked. I don’t want anything to dark.

I did and it looks awesome. I'll post some picks once I get it back from getting the rock lights and baja design behind the grill lights installed.

I did mine, really lightly. (maybe 30 or 40%)
In VA cops are real strict about it so, I had the guy that did the wrap, put tint on it instead of Spray smoking it just so I could take it off if I needed to.

didn't touch my head lights

I'm looking into this, I ordered some tints for the rears but couldn't find any good reviews for a kit for the headlights.

Anyone know where to get a kit? I don't want to to deal with cutting the vinyl.

Also this may sound like a dumb question does this cut down on how bright he headlights are?

Yes, I wouldn't touch your headlights. Short of clear XPEL anything you do is purely for looks and would cut down significantly on overall light output. That and the fact it's pretty darn illegal in most states. Tinting windows or taillights some is one thing, headlights is pretty useless imo and has absolutely zero tangible benefit.

Yes I would not do the headlights. I did mine and man it’s hard to see at night. I plan on getting them removed and doing clear ppf.

I think tinting lights is ridiculous. I'd ask why people feel the need, but I know the answers would be nonsense.

Function over form. Isn't that what a Raptor is focused on? It may look good, but I bought it for the function.

I'm sure a bunch of the guys that tint lights then add aftermarket lights. Hmmmm.
