Default eyelids or eybrows

i just got some eyelids of ebay. i was just wanting to see some pics of anyones car with them on there. also i was wanting to know if yours are painted did you buy color-match paint and diy, or did you take it somewhere. <~~~ if you did that, how much.

honestly i found some bad *** vinyl at a window tint shop, that is almost identical color. i might just do that.

edit: yes i did search.

Personally, I wouldn't impair my headlights ability to direct light onto the road. But, best of luck with it.

Yeah, I don't really see a point, to be honest with you. If you want to do it, by all means, don't let me tell you not to.

if you put one on, do you think it'll look as if your car is winking at you? maybe it'll look sleepy?

haha thats a funny picture. i think those are supposed to look like real eyelids i guess. the beatle crowd is a little different. no the ones im getting dont stick out they just lay flat over the top of it. all it really does on the em2 is conect the body lines of the hood. like it makes it look more rounded.

lol, thanks... i try.

Although i wouldn't say that not knowing who's it is or where it is is being particulrly useful.

It might be in the Pic Thread but i'm damned if i'm sitting through 70-odd pages just to find it.

To the OP: make sure when you put them on they fit perfect, I've never seen a real good "eyelid" set, alot of them seem like something you'd but at wal-mart and sticky-tac them to your car any which way. But if done right they can look decent.

Someone's got some serious rear-end sag. You blow out a spring or are you just carrying something heavy?
