Ah.. interesting. Very creative! In the pix it almost look like the molding is blended in with the vinyl. How did you get the black to match up between the molding and the vinyl, and how did you get it so that it doesn't look like there is a "border"? Great job.
I have some stealth bulbs too. Looks much better IMO.

About the border not sure what you mean by that? but the molding I choose had a trapezoid shape cross-section..I guess thats what gave the effect of being fused with the vinyl. I also overlapped the moldings by a few mm over the vinvl. Hope this answers your question.

Check out page 2....he didn't use for doors! Hahaha. But your reaction is about the same as everyone else's first reaction. What he did was very creative and the end result wasn't bad at all. Check it out.

How bright are the Pep Boys branded stealth bulbs? I bought some stealth bulbs before on ebay and they sucked so bad in the daytime that I almost got rear ended on several occasions. I've seen the PIAA Mirror bulbs which are like these but much more expensive. I now have the Sylvania Silverstar turn signal bulbs and they are very bright but have this green hue to them which I don't like.

[QUOTE=malujerry;5563774]wow, good job!
i thought you were doing door moldings...
Car with the door molding looks ok.....but the car w/o is much much better
The bulbs I got are not from pep boys but from www.stealthauto.com .they are really good, no greenish hue, the chrome also has a nice finish on the bulb.
