Hey all, I just contacted flip regarding having my headlights and taillights tinted! Im hoping to have a light tint put over both of them.... almost like the black GP in this thread. http://www.grandprixforums.net/2004-gra ... 21983.html

However, is there anyway I can get pics of other GXP's or hell any GP with the tinted headlights and/or tails?

I would like to see what I am getting myself into!

Thanks Guys!
Chad , hazards280

Yea, Flip has done most of the ones you see on here. If you still want pics in this thread, let me know and I can show you what he's done for me.

If you could that would be great man! Right now we are replying back and forth regarding my choices with pricing and etc etc.

At the moment, I am making the choice on what I want to do. Im thinking I will have the tails tinted slightly and I am unsure on the headlights as I have to send those in to get tinted. I would have one weird looking GXP in the meantime haha.

If you could post pics, It would be greatly appreciated, I have basically tore this site top to bottom and have yet to get a decent pic of tails on a black GP. I just am scared that it would be too much black as my GXP is black.

Just put Tinted AVS covers on mine but be warned pretty much any tinting your going to need some hefty HID bulbs to blast through the tint.

I was thinking about that today. I was also told that with tint on the headlights and HID bulbs, it creates more of a yellow light than the white light of the HID bulb.

I might have to just buy the little headlight covers that are black but, ill see. I dont want it too look chintzy.

That looks good! I suppose I really dont have anything to loose. If I dont like them, its not as if they wouldnt sell to someone else eventually.

Im terrible with photoshop or I would tint them on there haha.

Yes, but IMO the awesome look without the lights on out weights the little bit of color difference with the lights on. If your lights are on its dark and you can't see the car anyway. I live in Michigan and there are a million Grand Prix's around here. But none look like mine!

Those look great! Is the output on the headlights affected greatly, at least enough to notice.

Could you potentially get a night shot?

I'll see what i can do about a night shot.....Again, I'm happy with the output at night with the ultra's plus I always drive with the fogs on so every little bit helps!!!

Tony M, your car looks amazing with the headlights and tail lights. FLIP is a god!

Anyone have a similar set up to Tony M's but on a silver car?
