Headlight Tint
Has anyone tinted their headlights? I'm looking for a smoke light tint to match my blacked-out JKU 2012. Some shops say no, others say no problem. The lights are odd looking (doom) and I would imagine hard to tint?
They have smoked covers too, but hard to tell how they look.

I believe this is illegal in most all states. Some do angry eyes. However, if you're intent on trying it... I suggest just getting a can of niteshade and try that. Though I don't recommend darkening the headlights... Too much of a safety issue. Just my opinion.

The lights already suck, if you tinted them you probably wouldn't b able to see shit unless you upgraded the lights or something. I tinted my 2006 f150s headlights with nightshade and they sucked, they looke great but you couldn't see good. After driving in a hard rain one night at 5mph when the speed limit was 45 and about wrecking at almost every curb, I sanded them down to remove the nightshade. I would not recommend doing it but it's your jeep

Another Opinion
I personally wouldn't suggest tinting the headlights either, but I did tint my turn signals and side markers, work out pretty well with the stuff I just picked up from Wal Mart. I actually just upgraded my headlights and installed new lenses, bulbs, and halos from Oracle Lighting, now it looks awesome, and the lights are bright as hell! Only cost me about $400 or so for everything.

This one I can't figure out...
Why anyone would want to reduce the amount of output they get from their headlights is beyond me.
Tinted covers, angel eyes, Night Shade spray on stuff.
I am all for cosmetic mods that make your rig unique, but reducing the already weak output from you headlights...? I don't get it.
