Was thinking of trying it to see how it looks. Anyone do it to their car? Is it easily removable? Any risk of delamination like with PPF on headlights?

I've had them on for 2 years, love it. Just be patient with the install, the roundness of the fog light definitely require you to use a heat source to smooth it out all the way around.

Can you share a picture of what it looks like on the car? Which color tint did you use?

Mine ^^ are Lamin-X brand and yeah a heat source is recommended to try to get them to "curve" to meet the lens.

I went ahead and ordered the kit to try. Any other tips for installation?
