Thats why alot of people paint them black. Also cause it breaks up all the solid color in the front and gives it a better look. Besides its easier to keep painting them flat black when and if they chip again. Good luck

Whoops, haha. Didnt know you had a NHBP. You could always do like me and get them wrapped in CF. I havent had any issues with mine but then again they have a bunch of clear coats so chipping shouldnt happen.

Nope actual CF. I have very little net speed where im at so im gonna just post the link to the thread with pics and you can see them from there. It would take a good 25 minutes to get into the thread, let the pics come up, copy them, and paste them in here. haha. Heres the link https://www.fitfreak.net/forums/fit-...oglight+covers

T1R header? Better start saving your pennies now. haha. My foggies didnt cost that much. I also have two sets of covers so when im driving to work and stuff like that i run the painted ones and when im going to a shoot or a show i put the cf ones on. It works out pretty well so im not to worried about them getting jacked. haha. Good luck with the header and i will catch you on the threads
