Use the film, don't go painting it then have to get some new ones once you get tired of it. Waiting on a H-T approval is for people without a vision.

I'm not sure. There seems to be a fad in the past 2-3 years and it's very popular now. People probably think it's jdm. As blue lights are ricey. I think both are ricey.

weather fogs/aux yellow are fine tho.

i'm not sure either. there's 3 hondas (92 accord, 96 hatch, and a 94 coupe) in my area with yellow (bulb) headlights which are aimed like **** too. When they pass me, i see a sticker "I :heart: JDM" um... interesting..
Next time this person gets besides me at a light, i'm going to yell out "your headlights are ******* junk, ricer!!!!" muahahahahha.
