    Long story short, I had to replace my headlights and came across some 2013 stocks, with auto-leveling function for super cheap. Great condition, all tabs intact, both motors work, no leaks. However, they have tint on the outer edge as you can see. My initial plan was pull the tint with mild heat, and polish them up. I cleaned them up and installed them for shits n' gigs.
    I'm surprised that I don't hate the look, but I'm not sure I love it either. Maybe with some black sliders it'll flow better, they're next on the list.

    Your thoughts?

    Doesnt look bad at all. Flows with white and blacked out look. If you have free time and money (in case you mess up) to kill do it your way but if not id move on to the next project. Wish you luck either way!

    Thanks guys, general consensus is to keep them...for now. I forgot to add, I'm going on a 5 day offroad trip next month. We'll see how long the tint lasts. I do agree, BHM would help
