    The nightshades look a lot better than the yellow tint. i dis-like the yellow lens, but thats just my opinion of course.

    Why not use headlight tint film?

    It will look SOOOOO much better than any spray on stuff.

    not to mention the fact that it won't ruin the light output

    its not the light output that is really affected, but I saw an Audi A4 with yellow tinted lenses and first thing that popped into my mind was Honda or shitty riced old Acura.

    and his car is too light for nightshade to really work well.

    yes it is. problem with nighshades is that it is a spray and no matter how good you are at putting it on, you will never have a uniform layer of nightshades on the lens.

    If you can find a good tint shop, most of the offer films for the lighting assemblies - if you're going to do it at all, at least have it look professional and uniform as stated before.

    This.

    Niteshades on a head light is a silly idea to me. Why would you want to dim your lights? The yellow headlights make me think of GT cars or something.
