If you're happy cool, but I'd personally never tint headlights. My previous lights on my '15 that weren't HID weren't bright enough for my taste. Can't imagine throwing tint on them.

I like it. I don't think it's too dark and it is way cheaper than replacing the housing with the black inside.

^^Same.

Also used Luxe, and the brake lights are still nice and bright. Was my second mod, and is one of the bigger appearance changes aside from removing the chrome "Dodge" lettering.

Got the headlights done today.

Got it done at a tint shop for $100. Another place wanted 500-600 because he said I ”had” to upgrade to Hid.

As someone who has tinted headlights (other vehicle, a Flex) and almost wrecked because of lack of light when it was needed most, I recommend against ever doing this. Tint is deceiving, taking pics of your light is deceiving, and perception of light on the road is deceiving. Cutting light output is a bad, bad idea. Not to mention the possibility of legal push-back (liability reassignment) if someone who is at fault against you in an accident decides to take your mod and blame it. You WILL lose that battle, because of DOT blah blah blah. Doing a mod like this is like literally signing a waiver of your risk in being broke due to being sued for an accident, even it wasn't your fault. And an insurance company could choose to not cover the accident if it IS your fault, because of something like this. Don't think it doesn't happen.

Tail lights, well, we all agree our lights are bright as hell. I have done tails too and OEM's tint tails as well, but I'm sure ours tinted would still definitely exceed DOT regulations. Still could be liabilities like from a rear-end accident, but it would be a much bigger stretch.

Tails look good, headlights look a bit douchey tinted (again...I've done it, I'm calling myself out on this by saying what I am... live and learn.) If you want to make headlights look good, break them apart and paint the chrome bits which contribute zero to the overall output. Then it is just a cosmetic thing instead of a safety issue. And of course, OEM's do this the same way.
