Oh, I see what you want to do. I couldn't really make out what you wanted Matt. Post the pic of the headlight again.

Someone cut their GTS smoked headlight covers to look almost like those headlights. Looked pretty good from far away. Up close, there was too much gap between the cover and the headlight itself.

What I meant was it's not going to look anything like your request. I've had it in my mind for a while now. Just havent implemented it yet.

Those lights are cool as s***, a little salty though. Lemme know how they turn out with the tint if you get it done. Your car is sweet as it is, can't wait 'till you get all this done.

Yeah just tint them. I personally don't like the look of the M headlights. They look like Spider Eyes... Just... kinda creepy.

u know it only cost about 600-700 $ just for the headlamps
it's the JDM HID conversion that costs big bucks
so when avaliable, just get the headlamps without HID
that's what i'm planning on doing

those covers are :thumbdown:
you get what you pay for... you pay 3G's and you'll get top of the line HIDs and REALLY rrare headlight that no one else got...
but, whatever floats your boat

NO NO NO NO NO!!!!! PLEASE don't so this! I just can't stress what poor taste this would be. Its so obvious that you just vinyled over stock lights and cut holes to make it look like something else. Think about all those ricers who used to do that to the taillights on their civics to try and copy Skyline's. How bad did that look?

I'm going to attempt a kit similar to this one...only it will be made of, you guessed it, Vinyl:D. The good thing about it will be that it won't have the huge gap like Darth Maul's covers. Would anyone be interested?
