These are thick 3M material that is used to protect your headlights, plus they look cool . A local shop (Xpel dealer) used a machine to cut these perfectly for the 05 Mustang.

Sidemakers also

As for this mod, I can say I'm in love with it. Best exterior mod for the car so far (not many). FITS perfect with the sonic blue, if anybody's interested or have any questions, go ahead! Comments are welcome.

During nighttime, these overlays will not affect your headlights at all. They do not make them appear blue!


OH, more info. http://www.xpel.com

not the same stuff but the same look is debateable...

these will look blue at night though so ok at track not on street but less than $5 pair.

or red?

anyway, i couldnt resist the opportunity...
see the Project Source Horse for link to harman's showlenses

Those blue and red overlays look nice but they'd get you pulled over in a heartbeat around here whether they were turned on or off... There is no sense of humor here in regard to lighting colors other than White or Yellow on the front end of any vehicle.. They will even pull you over for Blue-Dots in your tail lights although they have relaxed a little (I've noticed)...

If they don't affect the lights at all I would be interested in these is a smoked version for my car. I already plan on getting the xpel product on my car.

i'm in iowa and checked w/a lawman 2day...
one can legally run whatever as long as light is NOT on. catch is, if a trooper catches a glimpse w/a reflection in the sun for example, he could say they were on even if off, best advise? buy yellow/amber and run anytime
i run all over town highway w/no headlights JUST FOGGS all the time!

Even though they don't affect the light, even XPel states they are for off road use and show cars only

in other words, I think you will be getting a ticket sooner or later.

Thanks John, that is what I figured. I will just have to get some I can remove easily until MRT comes out with their head light covers.
