-Hmmm, I like that. Should do a DIY write-up on that! I'd like to give it a go!

Blow dryer and plastic trim removal piece and work the lens off, while I had mine off I sanded and painted my lenses to get rid of the foggyness on them, I'm post pics tomorrow. They look like the above really, but pics are nice.

I love the look, subtle yet aggressive and it's cheap and easy to do.
