Default Headlight tint!!?!!

Okay so I have a black 2006 Si and was thinking about tinting the front and back light housings to kind of give it more of a stealthy look. Good idea or not? And if so does anybody know where i can get some tint for them?

TX has weird rules on what can be done or has to be on you car (i.e. red taillights, bumpers, license plates). So, it probably depends on the city. I would think you are okay in SA and Austin area. Also, if you are going through a small town, be leary.

Im not 100% sure of the laws regarding this either. I know the head and taillights have to be a certain brightness and the turn signals either amber or red in back and amber in front. Not sure how much the tint will affect it though cause I always see those camaros and firebirds drivin around with those gto lens'. Should I get an HID kit first? That web site isn't working
