Default My MR.ZIPPS Painted Headlights!!!!

Hey I just got my head lights back from mr.zipps and snapped a pic really quickly. I will take more shots later when I get the chance. I thought the pic came out pretty well considering this is my first non point and shoot digital camera. The shot is taken with my new Digital Rebel XTi.




This is to compare color quality and match.

Yes weather has been pretty crappy here raining and such but as soon as it clears up I will snap a few. I do have one more of the headlight and one I use as a cool desktop I will share.

This one is kind of dark due to the shutter time but it is ok.


I just like this one.

Well I went on leave and shipped them over christmas but his website states that they are usually done the same day as received and shipped the next. Thanks for the comments everyone..

Can u backup some when you take the pics? I think most want to see how it blends with the car versus the paint detail.

I know I do.

Yeah as soon as I get home I will try and snap a few more pics of the lights further away. I had to pull and 18 hour shift at work yesterday and into today. As far as the turn around as I stated before the turn around is usually one business day. That is for work only shipping quick so should take no longer than say three days or so.
