its hard to give a guide to the carbon wrapping mate, just kind of lay it down trying to get rid of the air bubbles as you go, lol, sorry mate.
depends on weather you use tint spray or tinting film. both good, but tinting film is probably easier and takes less prep.
where abouts do you live mate, could do it for ya.

tinting will always effect the input/output of light....why do we wear sunglasses on a sunny day 
The law states you are not allowed to tint the front windscreen for obvious reasons, and I thought the same applied to headlights too
not dissing, it does look good but I wouldnt want to risk it myself

The law/Mot hand book within the UK states that front primary lighting must produce a White or Yellow light. There is no documentation about the colour of the actual lens.
but saying that, there is a big different between passing an MOT and being road legal.
think i read somewhere that it reduces light by 14%, which i cant really notice to be honest mate.

yeah i know exactly mate, like i said iv had a few look at me funny but none of them actual do anything. could just turn my lights on then you'de be hard pushed to even noticed that they are tinted.
Now have some posh new wheels coming, well when i say coming i mean have to drive 201 miles each way to pick them up, and new and in second hand, ha ha. Going to get them saturday. Along with a set of 20mm spacers for the rear and then fitting the 15mm's on the front.
Have recently fitted a seat cupra R gear knob and gaitor, but will be changing a few colour details in the car to accomidate the new wheels, so have some new vinyl and new carbon fibre on the way aswell, also coming from the states are a few decals, again, to match the wheels.
i feel a colour theme coming on
Should be how i like it in a few weeks or so, woop woop.

I have used that film on mine and my mates cars, the dark and the yellow and have no problems with the plod, I had yellow film on my polo headlights and it is legal as i got stopped by the police and they questioned it, but after asking superior it was OK and i had two MOT's one passed no questions and the other i had to blag slightly with the police story and previous MOT.
i Used Lamin-x.co.uk - really good service and you get a little craft knife and plastic squegy thing to fit them with along with good instructions

Well, finally went the 200 mile journy each way to get the wheels, and personally worth every penny and mile. Lol. Had a major nightmare once I'd gotten home as my normal wheel bolts wouldn't fit into the holes of the alloys, so a quick dash to town and 20 bolts, 4 spiggot ring and £60 later I was all ready to go. Unfortunatly can't use any of my spacers, as the bolts are a funny length, so too long for 20mm hubcentric spacers and too small for normal15mm spacers, bugger, and I also don't fancy cuttin bits off them to make them shorter,
well other mods on the car over the last week include new gear knob and gaitor, few bits in the car painted White to match the wheels, rear wiper removed, smoke tinted side repeators, and a decal removed and others waiting to be put on, also thinking about putting the front and back badges back to standard shiney silver but not sure, anyways all comments welcome,
would love to go lower, but currently grind the under of my car getting into my parking space at home.
