I put mine on last night. They look good! I will post pics today if I can find time. I don't think I did a "great" job though, could've been better, but only real noticeable up close.

not to shit on ur parade

:l

but i think it would look nicer if u had a way to fade the real light into the euro style

maybe producing larger stickers on clear material that will allow enough blending so it can look seamless

just a thought

i would attempt this myself but i dont work in a print place

and having one of my print guys experiment with me might cost more than im willing to spend

^Not sure how you mean, as the intent is to cover up the orange reflectors. if it's clear, you see the orange.

I still have no idea what you're trying to say.

Maybe a quick illustration will help, lol.

Not sure if I understand what you mean, but if the sticker is larger, it will cost more to produce for material and time. The results would not be cost effective, as I am trying to stay within a practical price range. I'm not trying to cut any corners as well, but I do not see any need for a larger sticker when all is needed is the orange covered.
