Finally got rid of the angel eyes.
« on: 15 January 2011, 17:55 »
As above. Finally managed to get rid of the angel eyes that were on my car when I bought it.

Not got anything against them as such but they looked a bit silly on a golf.

This looks much better i think. Will be doing a bit of modding to them  in the near future.

To be honest they looked better on your car than on mine. Def depends on the colour.

Did mine today as well but left one in the oven too long. Oops! Melted the casing and retaining clips so had to bodge them to get it back on! looks good I think :cool:

Will be good to see it all cleaned with the lights in. Cant really judge before that.

Also Id be tempted to photoshop the crystal fogs on to give an idea of what it will look like when you fit them.

I didnt like them on my car but I think a lot had to do with the colour of the car and my personal taste. I think with the black insert it wouldve looked better but Im more than happy with the standard lights.

At the end of the day its your car so if you like them then who cares. Theyre a bit of a marmite subject. Def look into getting the stickers made up though. Looked at a couple last night. Makes the car stand out a bit.
