I finally found some fog light covers for the 05 GT @ California Mustang. Just thought I'd share this info for anyone that has been looking for these covers

I just bought some Static Cling-on Limo tint 20% in a 16" x 16" roll and cut out the size I need for the lights.
Cost was only $2.99.
What do you think?

Looks great and alot cheaper... I thought about trying that also as an option. My only concern about using the static cling was shrinkage or the material melting with the heat of the lamps. I just wonder how long the static cling will last? :scratch:

I guess I'll volunteer and ask the dumb question here: how'd you get them cut to correct size? One of those compass thingamagigs from high school?

Great idea--where can you by the material?

Well they certainly look a lot better than having GTS logos stamped all over the front of your car. But I couldn't focus on the fogs too long, the hood kept distracting me

No compass cutter required here. I don't think that would work as well as cutting them out with scissors. I started to try and cut them out with an X-ACTO blade but that didn't work too well.
The material is too think and tends to bunch up, even with a new blade.
I picked the material up at PEPBOYS where the window tent is.
It comes with a paper attached to one side. I found a tupperware lid (6") that fit just right in the lens and used it for a template and drew a circle on the back.
Then just cut it out with scissors. The lens is behind the black ring so cut it a bit big and you will never see it.

I don't use the fogs but I think the inside temp of the car windows gets pretty hot so I don't think that would be a problem.

Ninosport now sells fog light tent These lights will not get hot enough to damage tent. Static cling may not last any longer than the first car wash or rain. Will check it out.
You can paint out GTS logo but I never notice it. You know what gets me is people that pay for a sticker to advertise a product then crab about a dealer sticker that is free.
