It looks amazing. What did you use for the tinted headlights? type of film and percentage. I’ve been considering doing this but I would like to achieve just a smoky appearance and not affect the visibility of the headlights. I also have a soul red color.

I used Vvivid+ Plus Ultimate Headlight/Taillight Tint (light smoke). YouTuber ‘CKWraps’ recommends it and it’s a heavy-duty, PPF-like film.

Did you order a replica of the CX-30? It looks really cool.

How is the effect on the light output after you tinted the headlights. Is it noticeable with the daylight running lights and also at night. Would love to hear your impressions.

The ‘light smoke’ is very subtle - just a few percent reduction in light pass-thru and not at all noticeable except to reduce the amount of natural sunlight bouncing back out of the headlights. The headlights (and turn-signals) only look a little darker when the car is parked. In operation, no one would ever notice the small tint.

I took a chance by ordering it off of ebay. It was expensive but I couldn't resist since the model is the same as my car, right down to the white leather seats. When it arrived I was blown away by the detail. Here's the link.1/18 Mazda CX-30 CX 30 SUV Diecast Model Car Toys Hobby Gifts Collection | eBay

Chrome delete and headlights tint. Following suggestion from some forum members who have already done this I took the decision and chrome deleted front and door trims as well as the roof rails. Also applied light smoke headlight tint. It changes dramatically the look specially on the Soul Red Mazda’s. For the wrap I went with a Matte black From 3M and for the headlight tint I used a light smoke from Luxe.

The CX-30 looks so much better with the extra blacked out accents added, as well as the black wheels/mirrors.

I agree. The red color and the Polymetal Gray look amazing when everything is blacked out.

I took this last summer in a Dark Sky Area in Arizona near the Petrified Forest.

Today was a gorgeous day and I haven't been on this part of Route 2 on a good day for a long time. The Mohawk Trail has a well-known hairpin turn at the bottom of this curve. At this overlook you can see Mount Greylock, the tallest peak in Massachusetts, along with the Taconic ridge and into Vermont. A great place to stop and snap some beauty shots.

So love this Mazda Soul Red. Thanks to iCloud for uploading my pics (without my knowledge) I do have a picture of my car, thought it was lost when my laptop HD crashed and burned. Soooo my CRZCAT, the day I picked her up from the dealer and while she was parked outside the detailers for a ceramic coating, PPF and window tinting.

Seeing how far I can push my cell phone camera (OnePlus 8T) instead of hauling around my mirrorless. (Turns out I'm not particularly happy with my phone camera quality, but oh well.)

Side note, I also recently made an IG for car photos in case anyone wants to follow: @francx.30
