God you make that look so easy on the top lip with all the suicide-wrinkles

This tint film is of high quality, otherwise it would't bend so pretty well.

When the installation first starts the film looks really blue. However, once it's applied it becomes a faint blue tint. Do you all have video for an installation on a Honda Accord Coupe? I attempted to do with Lamin-X twice. Both times failing, horrifically.

What the material looks like will vary with the overall lighting conditions. The material looks different in the shop under HPS lights than it does outside in direct sun (done shots at the end of the video). Not sure what year Accord Coupe you have but both the 13-15 and 16-17 Accord Coupe headlight protection kits we offer are a lot easier then the Impreza / Crosstrek in this video. We do not have a Hondas Accord Coupe video (any gen) at this point.

Thank you very much for your answer. I just went to you website. May give this another try.

I guess this film will protect the headlights? That is, will it keep them from getting fogged looking? Thanks! Great idea.

Yes the materials will protect the lens from impact damage. All headlights these days come with a hard protective UV coating from the factory. The problem starts when you drive your vehicle without a lighting protection film applied to the lights. Over time sand and road debris chip the hard coating the headlights came with and the sun starts to break down the polycarbonate. This process happens slowly, little by little. So slow you don’t notice it until it is too late.

I can never get it smooth where it has the bends

The keys go getting the material to compress and conform are to distribute the material along the longest area by squeegeeing back and forth a little at a time. While doing this keep the material warm and pliable and use firm pressure on the squeegee.
