Default 5g Lude diagonal cut eyelids ?!

dup guys, Since I got my lude, Ive wanted these diagonal cut eye lids. But Ive only seen a couple Ludes with them. I was able to get in touch with some body who has them and he said that his were carbon stickers cut into that shape & painted to match. Heres a pic below, is there any official product or is this how they are all done

Thats actually the better way to go. seeing I spent the money for replica plastic CF ones and the hood wont latch with them in place. If I really cared to have them I would need to do a bunch of sanding I guess to get them to fit. Vinyl will sit more flush and still give the eyelid appearance.
I'm just waiting on my bud that does tinting and car vinyls to get mine done.

Ya if you go to a guy that does tint for awhile there pretty much pin stripers. I have a good friend that does all this. He practically markers and cuts free hand, professional window tint and vinyl. If its not right they do it again thats all.
