well I know some people are gonna doubt this and say it dosent work and will crack but they have been on my car for about 125 miles and they still look great.. I sanded the stock ones and took bondo(body filler) and filled in the top sanded then primed then drilled the holes then painted base/clear.I have pictures if you want I can up load them...

Same here. I about stopped when I was halfway done cuz I didn't want to hurt the car anymore..then I realized that there is already a hole there so I had to finish. Lol.
As far as advice, just don't let your head get in the way. Just drill the damn hole and don't think twice about it. Its worth it, trust me.

I thought about doing that too, but I've never touched bondo, and just said screw it.
If anything I'll buy those ebay polished covers for $100 and paint them.
