Hankwoo,

If you're interested in these, there's an Interest thread in the Group Purchase forum...not sure if you're on the list already or not...

If you are, make sure you let jdm-style know that you're in for sure...

Yeah i was thinking about joining the GB. I'm afraid these would get stolen off my car here at school, theft is kinda bad and double sided tape doesn't sound too anti-theft.

[uansari]

Well I don't know about your situation, but if the tape is anything like the stuff on the TRD headlight covers, the thief would have to work a lot to get it off...those things are on for good...:D

Anyway, if you want in, post soon...it's up to 11 people so far...so we got the 10 person minimum for that price!

Took me a good 20 mins to take those suckers off.

get a heat gun , slowly work from edge to edge and start peeling off as the adhesive gets hot

np :thumbup: if u don't havea heat gun use a blow dryer, it takes longer but still works, i've done this to my car about 3 times now

I sold mine so I completely took it off. I am not sure if you wanna follow my method but this is how I got them off.

I used a blow dryer and heated up the sides of the covers and used fishing line to cut through the tape. I used adhesive remover to remove the tape on the headlights.
