you'll have to keep this on the hush , hush or others will be looking for the same but give me the measurment from fender to grill in length and center to top of lense. I assume black. Pm a ship to and I'll send some out. I'll run a tab and add it to the panel when your ready.

I'm sorry the product is a 3mil general formulated calendered premium vinyl. very easy to work with onmild curved angles or heat for a more aggressive bend.

Go buy some really dark tint at autozone and cut it out with a razor blade and stick it on. Leave it on for a while, it will start to bubble kinda, but just see if you like how it looks, before you go spending money on other stuff. Because if you dont like it, well its very easy to peel right off.

Do not put really dark tint from auto zone, oriellys or anyware on your head lights!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!this tint has a adhiesivethat will bond to the lense as the head light heats up and cause the tint to crack leaving the lense full of burnt glue that cannot be removed... All eyelid kits are vinyl or have a adhiesive that stands up to heat unlike window tint. The whole reason for the black vinyl being first laer in eye lid kits is to closeout all light from showing thru the final color . Take a flashlight up to even the darkest window tint and you will see it shine thru. Stick with the products intended for the mod "don't" do it!

I'm sorry for you. but putting it on at all once the lights heat up it's over, someone should have warned you. Rick other missguided helpful hint's...Increase boost and off the line power by adding a cup of sugar to your tank next fill up!!! LOL!

Thanks for the "tips" guys.

Jarhead,
If I created a template from a sheet of paper and mailed it to you would you be able to create an exact replica out of black vinyl?
