Ok....Does it pay to put an Optic Blue Aerotect Headlight Overlay if you have a 6000k HID Xenon Bulb set?

Will the Headlight overlay change or offset the color of the 6000k?

Or will the overlay just change the headlight color effect during daytime hours????

Please advise CL.

If you already have HID, then don't waste your money. The overlays simply make the OE lights appear HID, much like if you were to install hyper whites.

 

Yes,

Don't waste your money. You will defaet the purpose of HID. If you want to protect the lenses, purchase the thicker clear bra film or better off, have it installed, it is kind of difficult to do.

 

I got the Aerotect Optic Blue.... (NOT A WASTE OF MONEY)

The Main Purpose for me was to protect the Head & Fog Lights from rockchips and pitting...
They are just as thick as the clear film for the light housings.

Having them in Blue, is just an added bonus for me...

I have no plans on changing the OEM HID Bulbs...

on the second picture with the fogs on, do the fogs have the film installed? The light looks yellow in the picture.

 

Yes of course.... (see 3rd pic with fog off)

However, I am running Yellow Nokya Bulbs in the Fogs...

 

ML -

If you want to get the optic blue aerotect film, I suggest not getting the HID in a 6k. I suggest getting a 4300k kit since the blue film will tint your light output to something closer to 8k if not darker.

I wouldn't say the film is a waste of money either because the film DOES help protect your headlight.

It really depends on whether or not you want your car to have that blue tint when the lights are off. If you do, go for the blue overlay with a 4300k kit. If you don't care what car looks like with the lights off and you're ok with it looking clear - then just go with a clear film and get the 6k setup.

Good luck!

ah that would explain why they look yellow Thanks Joe

 

^^ No problem!!

Here are some day time pics..

It looks soo much better with the Blue... (in my opinion)

Here is my car and my new friends IS-F...

My car has Aerotect Optic Blue and the IS-F has clear on heads & yellow on fogs.

 

You put them on your lowbeams too? isn't this illegal in TX? (i know you're from cali, but just to see if anyone knows :P)

 

i have them on my headlights and fogs too. You can't beat total frontal protection from rocks.

 

That looks pimp when sitting!! Just wonder how it will look with the lights turned on.

you could always get the clear overlays if you just want headlight/fog protection.
