Headlight film

[Frostie]

Here is mine with the darker version...

and this the lighter version, which i prefer, and the headlights are way better.

Sounds like you bought a sheet rather than pre cut? If so, why did you buy from the US?
And you paid £90 just for customs fees? How much did you order!?!
I ordered a set of front and rear pre cut tints and they were $60 each. I also paid $67 shipping as I was in a hurry. So a total of £187 which came to about £147.
Then customs was only about 20 or 30 quid I think. I'll see if I can find it on my bank statement.

i purchased 10 ft, and i still have no idea why the customs charge was as much as it was, as the product was only around £180 from what i remember.

What mike said for install but use a hairdryer less heat and a week cheap washing liquid, dryer is to heat the film for the curves and keep spraying when applying the film pushing the bubbles out and protect the film.

The supplied instructions said you can use a needle to make holes to release water / air if you can't get them out as it is self healing anyway.

Ah, so it's the same as the ventudreshield I fitted to my R1..

[MikeFish]

Pretty much, it's a tinted ppf. Not sure how good at healing it is, but I did make a few holes in it and can't see them anymore.

Tried this in 2014 and still going fine with them on headlights, fogs and rears - got a small strip (not cut to fit) for the rear spoiler light.

Got them from Ecs and MIke and Doc have the steps posted to install.

Set of: https://www.ecstuning.com/ES1867047/

Fogs: https://www.ecstuning.com/ES1867140/

Bought set above and the fogs without realising fogs were in the set as well.

So if anyone wants the fogs, get back and pm address and will send - only small so wont cost much I'd expect to post.
