MOT rules and regulations state:
1.2: Headlights
A pair of headlights must: emit light of substantially the same colour and intensity, emit a steady colour of either white or yellow and be visible from a reasonable distance.
1.3: Brake lights
A brake light must: emit a steady red light, at least 50% of the lamp must be visible from the rear and light must be visible from a reasonable distance
1.4: Reflectors
At least 50% of the reflecting surface must be visible from a reasonable distance.
1.5: Indicators
Every indicator must: emit amber light, have at least 50% of the lamp visible and light must be visible from a reasonable distance.
Masks, or converter kits.
A headlamp or rear tail lamp altered in this way is not a reason for MOT rejection. So long as light outputs are not adversely reduced, it emits the appropriate correct colour and the mask is securely attached.

Good find, i was going to say that i have been through MOT with the lens film on without an issue, but if i'm totally honest it does reduce the light.
