Ehh.....I would stay away unless they are name brand. autobadges sells nice stuff. I bought some cheap ones on ebay awhile back, and they were on the car for less than a week.

I got the cheap ones off EBay and could never get them to stay on. I just used them as templates and tinted mine 20%. I think it looks better and I dont have to worry about loosing them.

Use VHT "Night Shades" on them and you'll never have to worry about em again.

Dumb question:

Why would anyone want to decrease the performance of their head/tail lights? I've always thought that the easier I am to see, ESPECIALLY brake lights, the less likely I am going to get crashed into.

Headlight covers.....also dumb. Why impair your vision?


Car show? Maybe. Daily driver? Never.

I only use my headlight covers at shows,my taillight covers on 24/7. I have the sequentails tails also, so I have all six sections that light up instead of the 4.
