Default Headlight covers black
The C7 Z51 I'm looking at has black headlights. Any good threads explaining this. Curious is its just a after market new plastic cover on it or a tinted film or ?? Ideas?

Looks like 'tint' to me.

I would HIGHLY recommend that you consult either your State D.O.T. regulations regarding light restriction on a vehicle or a State Trooper.

Sadly, either you 'consult them' first, or they will 'consult' you.

Sorry, to be the bearer of bad news.

I'm guessing a ticket waiting to happen.

What's the purpose of darkening the lenses that your car's headlights shine through? Maybe it's a young man's thing, kinda like black wheels are more popular with the younger guys.
