Dalamar: - Are those OEM cobra headlights and what kind of paint did you use?

95opal - Do you know the exact vinyl used?

Instead of TTT, why not just PM the user, if the matter is urgent. Don't be a post whore.

I think the problem is that you do not have the headlights all the way in the header panel (which holds the front end correctly). It's a sweet idea but if you just want that part of the headlight covered you have to screw the taps on the headlight in more.

Thus messing up the aim of the headlights. Just aim them properly and do the tape/paint method. Electrical tape with an exactoknife/razor blade will take you far.

I'm very anal about having the headlights perfect. I think I've pulled out my headlights over 30x for having 3 sets, and my last set making a custom look for my car. The top tab and the tap closest to the horse can be adjusted so it can sit flush with bumper/corner lamp. The tab that is on the bottom can be use to aim them correctly...

Only way you mess up the beam of the headlight if the tab on the bottom is screwed in to much or just not screwed in enough.

So all im saying is that if he adjust the top tab, and tap closest to the horse it can sit flush with the hood and bumper so that part wont be shown.

I think it looks wayy better, I have smoked so its not as noticeable but after seeing those pics if I was rocking cobra headlights I would add that to my list.
