the tails look great!

is it any much harder to leave the white part unsmoked? i'd definitely go for that look more..

but all black fits well on an all black ride!

I'll take other pic later...cuz I take them off to let them dry. It's rainy since 3-4 days here...but I'll take a bunch of pics when I'll get both installed on the car. I made quick pics...and it come up a bit nasty. I already made better pics !

You guys seems to want to smoke it by avoiding to smoke the clear part of the flasher light. I think it should be made after with the x-acto knife...but I don't know how you can to it without damaging a little bit the finish of the light. Could be a pain in the ass...but I'm not a professionnal

sebas whatever happened to the eyebrows., didn't u order them last time??? aren't u gonna install them??

Hi Sean, yeah I try to apply them on my car last week-end. It was a terribly windy day and I didn't realize that the eyelids were that think after takeing off the paper on where they stick. Si the eyelids were flapping in the air like some flag and when I put it on the light it folded at several part.

I look on SG and I found back Mike T's website. I bought 2 pair of the black eyelids (version 2) he offers. 2 pair because I know I'll probably mess with the first one !

Thanks for your help Sean !

Hey Sebastien, how much tint did you need per light? (I don't have my car right now to measure)...

Is one 12"x24" sheet big enough for each light?

by **rollaevo99** » Fri May 25, 2007 9:59 am

that looks good!! 20% tint, ain't bad....
