Default Fog Lamp Tint

I am looking to finish a "black out" on my 2017 F150. I will post photos by July 4
I need to bring the Fog Lamps into the mod as well. I have not been able to find a nice pair with tint for my truck.
I am looking at:
https://www.lamin-x.com/Ford-F-150-1...rs-p/f148t.htm

Has anyone used this, or have experience? I would like to know if it is acceptable.
Any photos would be appreciated as well.

Or if you have some Fog Lamps with a "black out" effect, Please direct me in the correct space.

Thank you!!

June 14 Update.
I have ordered the product. I will update with information on instalation and pics on overall look...

I have not used lamin-x to black out my fog lights, rather i used a yellow film they sell to cover my POD's (helps a ton with fog/rain/snow). IMO Lamin-x makes the best quality, longest lasting films out there, and a lot of them come pre cut to whatever lightbar/foglight size you need. I love it.

I ordered a roll of cheap yellow tint film for my old car, and had a bunch left over, so I wrapped my fogs and they came out great.

I don't think the quality of the film is as important as the application process, but you do get what you pay for.

I just installed the film last night. A couple of bubbles yet, but they are supposed to work themselves out. The look is fanatastic. Not too dark, and it does not hamper the brightness of the standard lamps. Now the questions is "Do i upgrade to LED bulbs since I have LED's in My ANZO Headlamps?

Thoughts?

I have the Lamin-X light tint on my fogs to mute the chrome a little since I installed black housing headlights. I did not notice a change in output either. I have 9005 LED bulbs in mine. They come with glass tubes on them that you can add a variety of tints from blue to yellow. I use the yellow tint.

I had the Morimoto knock-offs and would still have them, but I like yellow fogs.
