same reason why i got fiberglass eyelids... the bluebat vinyl FM matched ok in the shade, but in sunlight it was an obvious gray and not the blueish tint that is FM.

but for CSM and SW, the vinyls match perfect, ive seen them in person. the look is much less bulky, but eh. thought about painting eyelids on, but no.

If you need help ordering, let me know. I'll get in touch with him. Just know, though, that he is a VERY busy man. 2 jobs and 2 very young children. It may take a couple of days for him to respond as he gets a ton of emails/orders a day. He will get back to you though. It's worth the wait. Color matching with vinyl is tough as they only make certain colors. And yes, there may be a slight difference in vinyl to car paint with certain colors, but as some have already stated, the SW vinyl will match perfectly.

Again, if you need help let me know.

Thanks Joe Its been a while since I've been on site. Going through some pretty deep personally issues right now, but I'm still doin my thing . Remember, they only make so may vinyl colors. I do my best to match as good as I can. Some sre dead on matches, others are alittle off. I've sold a ton of these to members who are very happy with them. Also, the great thing about vinyl is that it comes flush to the headlamp and fender/hood, so it doesnt stick up!

Best way to get a hold of me is via email, since I'm not on site as much as I'd like. Or Joe here or even Josh (Flintsone) can connect me to you. Thanks!
