Looks good! I'm tempted to do my headlights and c wot they look like
Headlights look good with them on (from a distance) but be advised that they DO cut down on the light that gets through them. I used to have them fitted but removed a couple of winters ago after getting fed up struggling to see. :)

Maybe something to look into for summer use only then

No didn't do the head lights as they do take the edge off of the light output.. I actually fitted some 6w Xenon filled Osram w5w (501) size bulbs on the inner rear lights just to get the rears output up a little from the standard fit 5w bulbs.. Although it's not really nessesary..

Cost of the Flyeye kit was around a tenner and I did my rears in about 45 mins..

Just one word of advice, they suggest you fit them within a couple of days of the kit arriving for best results as the adhesive is applied to the perferated vinyl before they are dispatched.. So I'd suggest ordering within a few days of being able to fit them..

Did you take the lights off or just leave them on the car?

One of my favourite colours. I miss having a track grey one sometimes, but white always wins :)

Good thing too is that it never looks THAT noticeably dirty in grey. But beware of tar spots that you can't see unless you get close

I initially went to look at one in white but it was in a right state, this one popped along and the colour really grew on me straight from than.. never considered it before.

It's already filthy lol it's going to have a GOOD wash this week but thanks for the heads up mate.
