I think that would be sweet, but how would that effect the light output?

I say go for it. Looks awesome! Does it effect the light output? I cannot wait to get the MX grill and put some lights behind it.

the film doesn't restrict any noticeable amount of light and the yellow is actually much more effective in my opinion. hmm...... i think i like the way they look too.

I say black'em out. Thats what I plan on doing once I put some behind mine. I'm going for the stealth look - FYI

I vote for hella black magics so that they disappear. I would rather go for the stealth approach.

I'm gonna have to add a +3 in the blacked out catagory. I love the light job you did on the fog lights, and love the lights behind the grille, too, but you should def black em out so you can't see 'em! (but that's just my opinion, you'll be livin with it so do what you like!)

i love the 3m. it is super durable and lays down pretty well. i was real surprised at how tough it was and how well it holds up. we offer 3m clear bra at the dealership and do a TON of them every month and we don't ever have any problems with it. good product imo.
