There have been suggestions that one can just have them painted on. It, supposedly would look better that way because it would be flush with the lenses.

Check with Ben from Bullet Proof, one of our sponsors. I picked up a set from him and am very happy with them. I believe they were around 130 or so. C West was the brand.

IMO... painting the light does not look as good, it needs to have a little thickness to it to come out right.

Go to a local graphics/sign shop and pickup a matching piece of vinyl they use for making outdoor signs...cut to size/shape and enjoy. Several of us New Englanders use this method....it's cheap, ultra-thin, and you can remove it when necessary.

Not to smart macgyver, vinyl will retain the heat inside teh headlight and melt everything. eye lids are a lot cheaper then new headlights

hey Doc - why would the vinyl be any different than the plastic eyelide or even stone guard for that matter? - -
