Although you seemed to have turned my 17's into 20's and decked it

Although gives me reasonable idea of the finished product :)

Managed to finally get round to doing the yellow fogs tonight

the glass is far from perfect condition, but then what do you expect for a set of fogs which have done near on 150k

Edges round the fogs aint perfect either, but then the plastic grills hide these! phew!

finished

currently spraying the engine covers, which is a right PITA as they are not in the best condition so need a lot of sanding and priming to get a nice clean finish....getting there slowly but surely. "Real" carbon bits on their way too ;)

cant wait till Sunday as Maz is doing the STG3 polish :D

Excellent job :D

Thanks mate, really pleased that you like the results. Silver is the hardest colour by a mile to get looking good.

Here's a sneak peak of the write up picture:

what is flye eyes for tinting the lights? Why you choose it over lamin-ax or whatever its called?

Yes it's for tinting the lights. To be honest i'm not too sure on it now. I thought it would have been a finer type mesh. Will try it and see how it comes out.....

Looked on the site says you can send it back even if used, lol approved by Max power!

Lol that's not something I would publish or associate my product with.

Got the idea from the UK Passat forum and they looked good. The jury is still out on this one

Is it a film jamie or mesh I want some black ones for my head lights , does it say how you fit it ?

It's just like a film/tint. If you go to the flyeyes kit there is a video on there showing you how to do it
