I'm considering getting the headlight and driving light tint from OutMotoring. Tried a search, and it yielded no results. Does anyone have it on their car?

I want to tint them slightly because they stick out horribly on the black car, but too much tint is never good

 

make sure it's street legal in your state

here in cali i think you can get ticketed for that, tho i do think it looks great

 

A company called Vinyl Styles offers a "smoke" tint which is a bit lighter if you dont want to go too dark.

Check it out here(various pics included): http://www.lylesvinylstyles.net/headlighttint

 

Waaaaaaay not legal in FL but...

Lamin-X
If you've got Xneons I'd say search up Joey mod

 

I wouldnt recommend smoke for the headlights.

I got the light bluish tinted headlight film and yellow for the fogs from Laminex. I love the look

 

I have the yellow on my car in California. I haven't been bothered by LEO's for it at all and I have had it on for over three years. I have Xenons, so at night with the yellow tint they look similar to regular halogens.

 

I don't have the Xenons...

I'm considering those EBay black projectors, but I don't like the look quite as much as the stock. I've been talking to Lyle from Vinyl Styles and I like the look...I'm waiting for him to have the 05 tails in before I place an order though

 

Where did you get the CF headlight rings from?

 

I have the "tint" from Lamin-X, they have a darker tint called smoke. I do like it, but really want to do a Joey mod, so this was sort of a compromise. Had them on since the summer, no hassel from the cops so far. They do compromise the light output though, I need to use my driving lamps to help out in the dark. I only use my car as a weekend toy at this point, so I am going to leave them on until I get an extra set of lights to Joey mod. I like the way it makes the chrome rings pop.

 

I had Outmotoring yellow tints on my fogs...and they burned horribly, providing an ugly center and a difficult remove. I was not impressed.

umnitza.

 

I really like that look, but mine is definitely a DD. Not enough light, huh?

 

this is laminex color Tint on my car the taillights are Gunsmoke (see my gallery for photo0

you can buy direct http://lamin-x.com/

here are the R56 products http://lamin-x.com/ecommerce/os/cata...2eea5aff1d511a

 

Check out my gallery for headlights, you can get them at http://www.motorswag.com/comingsoon1.html
They look great and you can customize them too. Once the MINI is running with the daytime running lights on, the film almost disappears, at night I have found NO reduction in visibility.

I have never had a ticket for them, have never been pulled over because of them in the 6 months I've had them. It's my daily driver too.

Great Fun, real parking lot stopper.

 

I'm a little bit worried about ordering from Motor Swag after all of the order fulfillment issues that they had. I might go with Lamin-X. Those look pretty good.

 

Mine is all rockblocker I believe. I don't have any problems with light or the law.

 

rhubbard- those are some sick photos! You have a great looking mini.

 

Thanks

 

Yep, 2nd that. These are some wayyy cool photos & sweet looking ride. If that's your house in the background, you totally score like 80billion bonus points.

 

If that was my house, I sure wouldn't be in a MINI. :P

That house is the Dodge Mansion at Oakland University. It is a very interesting place and has a great history.

 

agreed...nice car and great photos!

which Rockblocker kit did you use for the headlights? they have three versions on the website: MN101...MN205S...MN002?

 

I'm pretty sure I ordered the MN002. The mistake I made with my order though is that I clicked on the taillight kit below it on accident and ended up just calling and talking to the guy at Rock Blocker and were able to sort everything out.

 

cool

so it is just a tinted film? I have the laminX on my tailights for 5 years now

my thought process:
$350 ebaylights OR
tint headlight and buy PIAA Driving Lights

 

Yep, it's just like the Laminex I have on my tails.

 

the proposal
