rear light tint **pic heavy**

[SunGodRA]

I know many people are against this because of the dangers of loss of light output etc - but I have found a product that works!

This is road legal and meets all MOT standards etc and unlike traditional film is a doddle to fit - it took me less than 20 minutes to do both rear lenses - its cheap as well - £10.99 for a sheet (enough for both) Some pics (excuse crappy iphone)...

 

Before pic:

 

Light off and remove backing sheet - dont be put off by creasing, this stuff is flexible!

 

Trim (with scalpel provided in kit)

 

Once happy that there is no bubbles/creases, apply heat to activate glue:

 

Fitted back on car:

 

 

and a close up - this is the secret of FlyEye - unlike traditional tints, it actually lets loads of light through

 

a couple of pics at night to show that light does get through...

Where have you been ?

[SunGodRA]

I did the fronts this afternoon - I am really happy with the results...

 

at night....

with full beam...

and lights off...

 

I guess its a 'marmite thing' - I can see that some regard this as a bit chavvy - but I think it looks CLASS!

They do many different tints/colours

 

email Jason - nice guy and very helpful: flyeyes@sky.com

 

After speaking to Jason, a group buy may me available - subject to interest

[mattbowey]

i would definately be up for a group buy on this, although tbh i am tempted to do it at 10.99 anyway, is there a guide on here for removing lights?

There is no need to remove lights - I removed rears because it was easy - I didn't remove fronts - honestly it is a peace of **** to do - see this guide http://www.flyeyeskit.co.uk/index.php?p=video

Yep - I am going to do the bumper lights as well (Indicators)

This looks great - I really like the rears. Not totally convinced about the front though.

Was just going to say the same thing, rears , fronts

[M9O OEY]

I like both the fronts and rears really tempted to do this as my fronts look a bit tatty as they have faded my only concern is as captain asks how reversible isit once done ?

[mattbowey]

got mine done yesterday, did the rears and the bumper clusters and have to admit i love the look, havent done the fronts yet as they need a good clean first. will get some pics when i have done the lot

Like I said earlier, FlyEye kit is road legal and meets MOT standards etc - its all about the amount of light that passes through and as you can see from my night pics they are pretty good. These arent traditional film or paint tints!

Thanks that's just what I wanted to hear goin to fit mine tomorrow

[SunGodRA]

and for those that have recently purchased, make sure you fit them within 48hrs of receiving, as they are treated with a chemical prior to dispatch to allow them to stretch. A friend of mine waited two weeks before fitting and he had a nightmare stretching around contours (even though applying heat did help)!!

Shxx mine have been stuck at the post office for the last 24 hrs as they were "too big for the letter box" so I havnt got much time to fit them, got a wedding at 1 also
