    Looking to spray my head lights with tint spray. Is this legal / illegal as I don't want to fail MOT doing it.

    Fly-eye isn't an option as I've tried it and think it look's tacky?

    Thanks

    You're reducing the light output of headlights

    One of my neighbours has sprayed all the lights on his golf mk4 really dark black, at night the light his headlight gives out looks like he only has side lights on!
