Pretty car and the tint really helps hide the blotchs.

I’ll be doing the rail lights and windows soon so I’ll just have my guy do the headlight washers at that point. Overall very happy with the result.

I also did my tail lights right after the headlights. I did leave the CHMSL red though for obvious reasons. It looks fantastic.

My previous 07 XJ VDP, now that beast owned that British gangster look with all the chrome it had on it.
