You guys have any local vinyl shops? Flea markets? The place that did my bed stripe and windshield decal is going to tint my lights. They do 80% of the emergency/police vehicles around Dayton Ohio.

ok so i went and talked to the guy who tinted my windows and he said he doesnt have tinted vinyl but he does have a thing called Niteshade (My friend says he also has this) and that all I have to do when I get the headlights is tape off where I don't want to darken and then darken the exposed portion of the headlights for the eyelids. He said three coats will do it if I want to completely blacken out the light that way it cuts it off. Thinking about doing it.

Alot of people use the nightshades on their tail lights. I have never used it since you cant undo it if wanted. I get all my tinted vinyl from. http://www.stickercity.com/home.php?cat=2226

that's the only problem though, we're trying to find a way around that because they don't make eyelids for our 02-05's so we don't know what to use, should I just wait till the guy at the tint place gets the tinted vinyl in and have him do it? I probably won't ever be taking these off though as I will have a stock set of headlights and another set with the angel eyes.

If it were me I would get the cut to fit sheets and make a template and slap them on or wait for your guy to do it.

what do you mean by that? What would I be using if I were to do that, tinted vinyl just cut in the shape I need for the eyelids?
