Very cool, and I agree with Silverbullit, I really like the flames but the lines kinda look out of place.

I think it'll look great on the car. But my concern would be how long will it last? I don't think those tint films are meant to be on the outside of the glass. Is being exposed directly to the elements and the heat from the lights going to ruin your work?


Hopefully it works out for you. It looks cool as hell.

We already know it looks good, so if it doesn't work, make up a template and just paint it :P

I was thinking if he did the template thing and sprayed on the flames using VHT Niteshades. Then some clear coat over the tint to make it shiney like the rest of the headlight assembly, and add some protection from scratches.

Very cool look if you can come up with something that will make it last for any length of time. Personally, I would probably get a second set of stock headlights to swap out in the winter time.

Thanks for the template idea. I hope they last and they should, they made it through the car wash today so im sure they should be pretty good, even on the outside. Mabye if I get another set ill open them up and tint them on the inside. And hopefully its done snowing until next winter so I wont need another set.
Anywhere else I could put flames on the car, they kinda stick out from the rest. Would real looking flames look cool in the door jams?
