Bat's Eyelids on my RS2.0 (Updated Pics on Pg 3)

It turned out quite different from what I expected. The color match is totally off. I gotta take them off now. I'd like to say that I am happy, BUT I'm not.

Yeah, it's a tough color to match for paint, I can guess it's almost impossible to match vinyl.

It's Vinyl!!! .

Tong, let me send another set out to you. I have one that has more of a metallic finish. This is actually the first set I've done in that color. Let me give it another shot
