Is there a functional purpose or is doing this purely cosmetic?

I actually made some for my old camry out of fiberglass, I think they came out pretty good. In NY you can't pass inspection with tape on you're lights....

here's some pics. of the process and final product.

So, what i mean modify them is .... the thing is 94-97 accord eyelids are longer... so you would take something like a dremel and cut the ends off.... that's all dude... search... someone tried to do it

And hondaclub my eyelids have NEVER even moved once i put them on, just took some normal road abuse n had to change them, thats all. One day i'm gonna do the accord modded eyelids, but these work for now.
