I'm not always a fan of blacking out everything, but that looks mean.

You wouldn't want to do much driving at night outside of town, you would have very poor road illumination.

Personally it invites WAY more Law enforcement attention than I'm willing to deal with.

I've had cops pull me over for an expired inspection sticker so don't think they aren't paying attention. I'd say those lights are going to be like waving a red cape at a bull. All you need is one cop having a bad day and your wallet will be a lot lighter.

It really is not that dark and it does not cut back the lights at night. It looks a lot darker then it is. I can run safely and have not had any issues with law enforcement

It's Blind!! Ha, jk. Looks nice, but too dark of a tint. Maybe a few shades lighter would work.

I like the back, not so sure about the front, but it strangely looks clean. I'm looking forward to the wheels.

Of course it cuts back the the lights at night. How could it not? You might be able to make it up for it by always using your brights now.

Looks really really cheap to me..... Kind of like a heavily modded 1997 Honda Accord.
