Just finished up a review that can apply to pretty much anyone. Its a DIY to tail light tinting.

VHT Nite Shade DIY / Professional Tinting How To

I do lots of misc write up like working with carbon fiber or vacuum bagging carbon fiber parts for under 50 dollars. Would you guys be interested in posts like those?

Nice tutorial. I'm guessing i could do this with headlights as well if i wanted to give it a color tint?

It would work on the headlights also. For those I would tint the inside to precent rock chips from pitting it up. If you have a plastic lensed headlight it would not matter though. With that the VHT really has some issues with laying out thin. I would go tinted clear coat for sure on the headlights.

Most of these are Volvo specific but some are not:

Hey what would be better for me on a 2000 stang. Super charger or turbo charger. It is a DD in the summer though.

Depends on if you are building the bottom end and what your engine managment requirements are.
