Head light/tail light covers

Is anybody aware of any quality headlight and tail light covers available for the G37? Not overlays like Bat's, I'm looking for rigid acrylic or polyurethane covers that fit perfectly over the lenses that I can paint. Not for everyday use of course, but for show to have the front and rear blacked out. Anyone?

Aww man. I want it NOW! Headlights too. Something that I could use to completely black them out for shows etc.

Got a sneak peek yet?

Something like this but nicer:

Uh why would you want that for your headlights? You got black headlights... Looks really ugly IMO.

I have GT-R style taillight covers in the works. No pics.

My painted headlights look great. But I think I may want something though to cover the heads and tails that I can paint black to completely black out both front a rear. Not for all the time, just for when I feel like it.

Not exactly like those cheap GTS ones, but that's to give an idea of what I'm talking about.

I guess I'll just have to be patient.

Eyelids are about the closest thing I have seen.

Why doesn't the guy who makes they eyelids just make some "sleepy time" eyelids that are fully closed? Something about as thin as eyelids with perfect fitment would be ideal. I can't be the only one who thinks that opaque body colored covers for heads and tails would look awesome for show... or maybe I am.

. I have nothing like removavble covers, just vinyl versions. Sounds like the ones Igor is working on is more in tune to what you're looking for. If you decide on Vinyls, hit me up .
