SunGodRA Posted August 17, 2010 Share Posted August 17, 2010 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...

SunGodRA Posted August 20, 2010 Author Share Posted August 20, 2010 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! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattbowey Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 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? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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 David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shad0wca7 Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 This looks great - I really like the rears. Not totally convinced about the front though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spursmaddave Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M9O OEY Posted August 25, 2010 Share Posted August 25, 2010 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 ?

Hopefully these ones are okay though and not like the black paint used on that lads car! Funny that..was going to say the same thing. Just watched Interceptor on Five. 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! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M9O OEY Posted August 27, 2010 Share Posted August 27, 2010 Thanks that's just what I wanted to hear goin to fit mine tomorrow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SunGodRA Posted August 27, 2010 Author Share Posted August 27, 2010 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)!!
