I actually purchased the eyelids from a forum member in here who also had a Black Sapphire Metallic 135i for a decent price.. It was UntouchableE82

any shots with the corner bulbs illuminated? I'm curious to know how much light passes through...

Also, interesting choice with taking the tint all the way to the HID bulbs... any reason you chose to do that and not just cover the corner light?

Hi Kamal.. I'll try to get some shots illuminated after work.. As far as my reason, I could still see a little orange poking through when viewing the car from the front, so I decided to cover the whole corner with tint..

I also was inspired by this post

Illumination shots.. looks mean!

escobar929 · 04-15-2011, 01:59 PM

i really like that, good job

Sylon · 04-15-2011, 03:59 PM

I love it! How did you do it? Looks like a couple layers, one covering most of the orange, and then a tint covering the whole light.

Yes, exactly.. Ordered two 12x24inch sheets from metrorestyling.. One Chrome and one tint.. Also ordered the spray bottle and the plastic tools they use to apply the material.. I already had a set of sharp exacto knives to cut them.. Found a bowl in my kitchen that exactly matched the curves of the corner so I used them as a stencil

I think a how-to is warranted
