Headlight Armor

Anyone try these yet?

http://www.headlightarmor.com/13-sub...ction-kit.aspx

Curious as to how easy it is to apply and line up (looks like it goes on like a wrap), and if the smoke version reduces the light output too much or if it would be better to go with the light smoke. The stealth smoke is definitely out of the question as that would be too dark to be safe at night.

I had Lamin-X covers on my '98 Audi A4, and will be purchasing a set for my BRZ (clear, just for protection). I'm a little concerned with installing them, as these headlights are pretty curvy. The key is to use plenty of liquid between the housing and the cover, so you can slide them around and reposition as necessary.

I'd like to do this eventually, and yes light smoke so as to not attract too much attention

I've got it on all the lights on my WRX. It was all pretty easy to install on that car. You can always find good how-to videos online.

I have the Laminx ones and they were impossible to put on so I took them to a pro tinting place who did them for me. The fog light covers however I was able to do myself.
