Default Headlight splitters worth it?

I've searched and couldn't find any customer reviews on headlight splitters. I want the splitters but heard that they don't stick well, or conform with the shape of thelights that well. They also have a tendency to have a sticking problem due to the headlamps heating up the tape.

Those of you who own the splitters, have you ever experienced any problems at all, with fitting them on, or keeping them on?

Hi, Put my splitters on a few years ago and they haven't budged.

Bought them pre-painted from LMPerformance.com

Thank you for the quick reply. Personally I think they will look awesome with the pony package, but the problem is the grille. I want to change the grille but keep the pony package, do you have any suggestions?

This is the only grille kit I've seen for the pony package

The problem with the splitters not sticking may be something to do with the prepping of the surface they're being stuck to, or if a cheap version of 3m sticky tape is being used - or both.

just dont buy from mr body kit, theirs are not the right shape at all and were totally uneven lengths. For the grille, why not just do a GT bumper and grille?

brilliant silver looks almost just like satin silver, have you seen a satin silver next to your car? there cant be that much of a difference from the looks of your car
