I bought 2 yellow film from them for my Accord 2008 fog lights. It is really good quality, and it is thick enough to protect your headlights or foglights housing.

at first I was thinking of gettin some just to protect the headlights...but the 6% tint might not look too bad on our headlights....just wondering if anyone else has tried it.

I have this on my car. Actually, both on mine and my wife's car (RX350). Lot cheaper, great quality.

i've used it on the fogs of my odyssey with retrofitted HIDS and definetely recommend. Reason i went with lamin-x is cause i've cracked 2 sets already and the dealership was charging about $500 each time - i couldn't buy just one side. Unfortunately, both times it was drivers side. the lamin-x film is quite thick, but easily molded with a heat gun or hair dryer and i haven't had a cracked lens in 1.5 yrs now.
been thinking about doing my 3gs headlights in the tint or gunsmoke myself, but not sure what to do about the headlight chrome trim. my fogs were easy to do with them off the car and in my living room. not so sure i want to take the headlights off the lexus though.
