ebay vinyl eyelids & taillight eyelids

[raffa]

hey guys & gals as the title says after um-ing and ah-ing i decided to chop out the massive $27 and set a set.

the install is not for those short on patience. the paperwork provided say to spray the light itself with lightly soapy water ( and i highly recommend you do )
to manoeuvre the sticker into place, leave to settle then 'squeegee' the excess water out ( i gently used a credit card ) while using a hair drier to heat and slightly shrink the vinyl ( i used a heat gun on low as i have one )

as you slowly heat and manoeuvre it into place it becomes VERY sticky quite quickly, slowly work the air bubbles and small water pockets out.

i recommend leaving a small overhang at the top as when it shrinks it still covers the top of the light, just heat the overhang and carefully tuck over the top

will post headlights as they settle

not sure if ill keep them as yet but either way for less than 30 bucks and an hour of my time it was worth it, even if they only stay on for a week

Dont mind it but i think i'll be getting mine tinted

Cant wait to see the front

James did you see the carbon wrap eyelids on the front of my car? I like em on the front but not on the back. Although i would tint the entire rear light rather then eyelid it.

[Bakis]

Ahh ok, yeah fronts look good , would like to see black on red eyelid wise.
