I know Manus has vinyl on his headlights that match almost perfectly with the Bodega Beige color of his car. He has some kind of big swatch book of vinyl colors. He matched his car to the color and ordered some of that vinyl. He told me once what company made the book, but I forgot.
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(KRONER)</div><div class='quotemain'>where can i get some vinyl and how well will it match my sliver?</div>
goto a local speed shop or import shop. That shop should have some vynil rolls. I pay 15 bucks for about 6ft.
didnt realize it was that cheap...tell you the truth i havent really asked around for it due to work and laziness but im definitely gonna have to do this...thanks for the info guys.
if anyone finds a place to get vinyl that matches the dover pearl white color or what not, PM me and let me know
I got mine from a local graphics/printing shop. They gave me some of their white vinyl scraps for free.Originally Posted by Turboutlaw
I got silver vinyl that matched my car fine but it was too translucent
I was told to put a dark color underneath like black
I'm gonna try that next

Is your car the white, or the dover pearl which is more of an off white. And if it is the off white one, does the vinyl match the color of the car paint??
Mine is white-- Northern white something. Therefore, the regular white vinyl blends well. That's right, yours is dover pearl. Still, it won't hurt to check your local graphics shop if they got something that will blend well with your car color. Wish you well, man!Is your car the white, or the dover pearl which is more of an off white. And if it is the off white one, does the vinyl match the color of the car paint??
don't forget to put vinyl on top of the headlight too when applying it. it allows less light to penetrate through the vinyl. i have carbon fiber film as my eyelids..my car is black
Does anyone know a Vinyl shop that might sell same color vinyl as the Bodega Beige?
I want to do it to my headlights... If anyone can let me know...
Thanks
u might find some on EBAY or maybe her ein texas i know some places that might be able to get it... but just go to a window tinting place and maybe they can get it for ya..

why not just buy erebuni's eyebrows and mod em cant be that hard jdm headlights r not much different in size just a little longer and if u bought them u would have to pant them to match regardless no? so buy em cut em sand em pant em put em on and u stright
erebuni's eyebrows are about an inch longer than the oem headlights. so you'd have to cut the inch off each eyebrow. sand things smooth. and then prep and finish each piece. vinyl its just cut the piece and then apply. much cheaper too. erebuni's eyebrows are overpriced
dang - who's bringin up all these old posts... these even have some stuff from Matrix
i have brows on my car
but its a 7g......btw, i put it on AFTER my avitar.
i found this type of electric tape that matched my color.
