Do they fit nicely over the car? cause on the picture it looks like its sticking out. and is it just like a decal or is it actual plastic covering?

I think it would look better to paint the inside without a doubt, for those who are not technically inclinded or dont have the time this is a fast easy solution, thats not horrific looking.


To each his own.

If they are a decal, I hope CustomBrakeLights didn't cut them

they fit perfect but look cheezy on the car if the cars not black....we put them on my sisters blue cobalt and they didn't look that great so she had them painted to match the car.....looks pretty good

what do you expect for $50? they hold up pretty well "IMO" and they're just like every other AVS product (made outta the same material) such as the rain guards and so on....they do the job they were meant to do (break up that HUGE ugly head light)

sorry if i sounded mean...i wasn't trying to take offense (people say i do that alot) it was just a temporary fix for the base cobalt i had and then transferred them over to this one....i would also like to get a projector head light but until one is proven to be good i'm gonna hold back my $400 because that seems a little steap for the ones on ebay which no one has any real clue about , so as a quick fix...works for me.....i've also seen many people painting theirs which i would like to do but not sure to exactly go about doing it because everyone's directions are different

Wear did you get or how did you make the lighted reverse lights? It makes the back end of your car look a hell of alot better. I keep seeing picks and I want to do this to my car becuase the reflectors look kind of cheap not being lit. Any info would be much apreciated.

Take it from someone who has a pair in his trunk. Don't get 'em, they look horrendous in person.

You can paint your own headlights for less money, or if you want, you can buy some on ebay for cheap.

I don't want to paint, cause I want to be able to easily remove. I don't want permanent. I tried a photoshop it actually goes pretty good with my black housing IMO. I'd still like to see how they look on a cobalt and not photoshopped though.

I think you should just take your stockers and tint them. That would look much better imo.

Maybe not fully blacked out, but a nice tint would look decent. It looks great on black sedans.

I don't want anything permanent. That's why I'm seeking covers instead. I want to be able to easily remove whenever I wish that way in case a cop busts my *****, I don't have to go out and buy brand new tail lights. Less hassle and less of a PITA that way.
