    The easiest thing to do would be to take your car to any local sign shop that makes custom signs and ask them to match your color with some vinyl. Once you get the color it's nothing more than buying some scrap pieces and laying them on the headlights and cutting out any pattern you want with an exacto knife. Just be careful not to cut deeper than the vinyl or you will put scratches in your headlight. Good luck!

    Template...

    Rather than cutting the vinyl on your headlight you could make a template out of paper or something. I don't recommend cutting the vinyl with it on your headlight.

    If you don't have a vinyl shop in your area you could probably contact any online vinyl dealer and ask them to purchase a sheet or two of vinyl (not sure how much comes in a sheet or how they are sold?).

    I did an internet search and most vinyl places sold specific graphics. If you search around I'm sure you can just purchase the vinyl itself. As for the color the best thing would be to contact a vinly shop and let them know what you want to do and tell them your cars color. Your color code should be located in your driver side door jam (three digit code).

    Hope this helps some!

    here is a website hosted by a Matrix guy so the vinyl should be close I assume. You could always ask him. I ordered a few things from him earlier...

    He has solid colors and transparent. Not sure which colors though. Its worth a look.

    i waqs gonna get vinyl but i though about how none of vynl would match, i couldn find anything that was same glossyness, tint and had the same sparkes that the lunar mist has, and at certian angles i looked way off and at another it looks good, i would just buy them or have some place paint them w/ the OEM paint
