Dragon Eyes

I saw a photo of a 370z with the Neo Dragon laminate tint (Dragon Eyes) on the headlights the other day, thought it looked great. Is this a popular mod

Is this a popular mod to do on the 370z?
If you have it done on your Z, what colour did you get and post a photo.
Also, does it affect the output from the lights?

Can almost guarantee it's not legal and probably negatively affects the light output. It is unique though.

I've done a search on the web, and as for legality it seems OK, apparently it doesn't effect the light output at all. It doesn't even effect the colour of the light emitted.
This is one of the reasons that made me curious about its popularity.

I think it could look good with a similar paint job. The way it looks in the pics I saw make it look off. It could be something that in person looks better than in a picture too.

Yeah! Those demon eyes look awesome.
I would love to have them on my Z but it means baking the light unit to strip it down so you can install them, I would be a little worried that i stuffed 'em up and I've heard that they don't work too well after a few years also.
