Try tricktape dot com. They have vinyl decals that look opaque, but actally let 90% of the light shine through.

so dude, i went ahead and photoshopped it cause i want to do something similar with mine. I think i might be able to get a vinyl company out here to cut me exact fit vinyl. I think this looks awesome so its most definately a possibility now. LOOKS DOPE!

Yea man thats the idea i had. Dude if you can get the vinyl company to make a set, then count me in. Im sure the headlights wouldnt be as bright, but def.makes it look sick.

Yeah do it and let me know how well you lights work afterwards. I'm going to be doing alot of night riding so I need all the light I can get.

BTW that photoshop looks really good. I wish I could figure out how to use it lol.

lol yea, I'll post pictures when i get it figured out. I have to figure out the right color match, and how thick the vinyl should be so that no light comes through the vinyl. Still not sure on exactly how its gonna work, but we will see.

Actually, I had a choice between an RR and a F4i and I chose the F4i because I liked the headlights better. But whatever you feel man
They both look good.

you can probably get any sign or awning place to order the correct color code for you or go to a graphics shop in town. someone that does lettering on business trucks and carswill be able to help you also. they can probably show you all types of options

good luck

Hey, Lockhart Phillips also makes a headlight decal that sells for $25 and it comes in almost everycolor. It is a mesh type that allows the light to pass through and is dot approved.
