Eyelids...

Hey guys, i have eyelids for my car, but they are vinyl, and the only ones i can find that are fiberglass are like 150+ dollars... was wondering if any of you guys who have eyelids can tell me like difficulty level 0-10 ...i've done vinyls many times in the past but have never done it successfully on head or tail lights... cuz of the curves

You mean on the front bar? Use the trailblazer ss. It's bigger so it covers up the area better
