What color would look good on a silver car and how big of a sheet does it take to do the front headlights?

all the colors would work...but i would go with yellow to be honest. yellow on silver looks sick but its all up to your own preference.

i think the dimensions i got were something like 6 x 30 for the headlights and 12 x 25 for the tail lights

ill say this about the HID look...

HID is HID and nothing compares. The film makes a dull bulb look white and white bulb (silverstars like mine) look whiter with a tiny little hint of blue. Its kinda like turning up the sharpness on your tv. It doesnt have some magical effect that makes them HID but its definitely an improvement and looks pretty good in my opinion.

no. its relatively thick..thicker than window tint. You have to apply it like window tint by wetting the surface with a mild soap/water substance and have to Squeegee the lamin x flat to get rid of bubbles. its essentially like window tinting except its not that easy with the head lights due to the different contours of the light

vinyl places will usually supply a squeegie. I'm not sure if lamin-x does. Typically, it's about the same size as a credit card. And my dad has vinyl on his car...you DO need a squeegie.

they supply a squeegie for you. your best bet would be to have a local vinyl shop or tint shop do it. its not that it is extremely difficult but it can be a pain in the arse on our headlights

According to their website, you don't have to squeegee out the air bubbles because the pvc vinyl they use is breathable and as it heats up, creases will also disappear.

well i've actually installed it personally and can attest that you do because not all the air bubbles will come out if you dont. think of it essentially like tint. you also need to do it to get it into position and laying flat
