VViViD Yellow Headlight Tint Install

[Yonder]

For anyone who is interested in the Super GT style tint here are some photos.
I used VViViD Air Tint Golden Yellow Headlight/Tail Light Window Tint (17.9" x 48" Large roll). Price $14.99.
Fogs are lamin-x.

Used a hairdryer and a credit card for install as this tint is not a wet install.
DEFINITELY recommend having a professional do it but if you are into saving money and okay with minimal blemishes
go for it.

Iv done it with and wthout the bumper. A lot easier without the bumper (go figure) lol
Will help a ton if you have a buddy there to hold the film while you use the hairdryer to heat the tint. This will make it more clean around our Si's buldges and create less wrinkles/bubbles.
Have to be patient and take your time. I recommend trying it out a couple times and watching videos before actually attempting. Good luck!

Nice! Not sure if I would do the same, but you did a good job!

Job well done. I'd like to put some clear vinyl over mine for UV protection, but have been scared away by the few ridges and bulges. Had a hard enough time with previous cars that only had a slight curvature.

It is 100% a pain to do it alone and quite frankly i couldnt even find a video of someone doing a light this difficult lol i do like the idea that the headlight is now going to have less road rash though.

Looks cool but is that legal?

I thought the same before purchasing and did some research... This was all i could find.

"Section 25950 of the California Vehicle Code states: “Unless provided otherwise, the color of lamps and reflectors upon a vehicle shall be white or yellow for those visible from in front of a vehicle.” ... “The lamp lens must be yellow or clear."

From what i gathered, running yellow is probably the only one you can get away with. When the lights are on, you can clearly distinct turn signal and headlight color. I think that matters most but only time will tell i guess lol

Looks great! What did you use to cut the tint in the right shape of the headlights?
