As far as I know tinted headlights ARE ILLEGAL.

Aside from the legal aspect, why? The more lighting you have, the more you can see, the safer your night driving will be.

If he means that clear frosty stuff, then afaik, it's legal, as long as the lights still glow the right color

I dont understand "WHY"
Just leave them alone so you dont need to worry.
Its NOT legal. Changes the light output. ADRs have detailed requirements for SAFETY reasons.

Bazzle :?
