Looks cool! Do you have to glue them on?? How do they stay in place, and what's the cost?

You can see the glue that came with them on the last pic. However, the bodyshop guy told me its better to stick them with 3M double side tape :thumbup: (its so thin) and they're stucking perfectly now ! I bought them from a shop in London,UK. I was there last August. Price:£178.73 (Inc. VAT at 15%)

Works out to $295!! Holy crap, and then you have to get them painted. I don't know if I would want to glue them on to my headlights though. If you wanted to take them off or sell your car, you'd be screwed. Yeah I guess you could use the double sided tape though but I still wouldn't pay that for two little plastic pieces! Couldn't you achieve the same look with the decal film they use to make signs??

The painting cost another $100 ! They said that those two small parts would hold the painting oven for 40-80 mins! they charged me for the time! Don' worry,I have 3M protection film on the both headlights :) so the double tape is on the protection film , nothing is touching the head light except the protection film ! yeah its expansive ! but, I really wanted the look, I couldn't find anything else to do ! :s

Makes the headlamps very aggressive! :thumbup:
But, I somehow don't like the gap/edge between the fender and the eyebrow. I would have preferred a seamless blend of the fender and the eyebrow pieces.
