very nice looking man!! what did you use to mount on the front ones to the headlights?? I am trying to keep the corners of the eye-lids to stay down...the middle seems to be okay but the corners where it wraps around the top and bottom of the headlight likes to pop back up.

You need to avoid using double sided tape in the middle section. If the tape is slightly lower it will make the tips lift.

I would leave it as is if it's not too noticeable, if you do decide to remove them then please be sure to sue a hair dryer to heat the tape up and a cutter to cut the tape.

Please let me know if you have any more questions.

Thanks!

my tips stick up a little bit too. If it gets any worse over time I will take them off and just redo them.

Chris, so you got your rim? Nice to see you're back on the road bro.. Yeah.. I see the corners.. Eyelids are a good touch, but yeah.. we need to get those corners down. interrupts your lines..

We also need to find you a background that contrasts more w/ the color of your ride.. That beige kind of makes your car blend in too much.. You can't appreciate the beauty of your car.. Your car is SO sick this doesn't even do it justice.. Yours was the first modded G I ever saw in person and was the inspiration to mod mine so fast.. I'd LOVE to shoot your ride when you get all your stuff done (rear lights, new rim, etc)

Are your headlights color matched to your ride? NICE touch...

thanks for the comments man. I dont have the new rim on the car yet....I am riding stockies in the rear right now with BFG Drag Radials...lol!! I will have the license plate lights installed next week and the tailights wont be until probably end of next month. Mike is headed to Europe through the 15th. I know on the pics..thats one of my spots that I like to take at because no one is ever around.

Yes my headlights are painted to match the car and my clearcorners were also painted to match the car

well it's definitely good to see your ride again man..

Now back to our regularly scheduled thread.. Sorry for the diversion Ionic...

Eyelids DO look good though.. we just got to get those bad boys to comply w/ the curves.. Dick can fix those when he fixes your Skirt.. He mounted mine and they came out perfect..

Tape in the middle section = bad

Please remove carefully and reinstall with double sided tape only on the tips =

Awesome Coupe BTW, the lighting is awesome.

I'm going to update my initial post with this info.

Thanks!!
