Anyone seen these front turn signal covers before or know where I can get them? I really like em and searched everywhere but cant find them. Saw them on this pic for a billet grill when I was looking for stuff. Thanks guys.

Those are more and likely made by the owner of the car. Looks like they just masked off and painted.

wouldnt be hard to do with a piece of plexiglass or lexan just to cover the existing parking light. that way if you decide down the road you dont like them you can just take the covers off instead of buying new parking lights.

if you have a local vynl graphics shop, they could easily make you the chevy emblem templates to make the paint job look professional.

You dont have to go to a vynil graphics shop to do it. Heres mine painted. I only took pics of one side. The pics of the whole front were too dark. I am gonna get a new paint job and some clear lights soon and do those. I think they needed to be lined up a lil better. They were a pain to try and get off so I did them while they were on the car. I printed out a chevy logo and traced it onto some white contact paper that you can get at walmart for like $3. I use it a lot when making stencils for painting graphics. I used scissors or you can use an exacto knife and cut it out and put it on the light then painted it, let it dry and peeled off the contact paper. Easy as pie. I like them.

there is a guy selling tinted covers for the front turn signal lights in the classified section, you might be able to pull somthing off with a set of these, they velcro on and you could paint anydesign onto the covers and the light will still shine through
