Just wondering if there is anywhere to buy eyelids for a 3rd Gen 98 TF?

If there is how much would they set me back?
Also it would be nice if people could tell me what i have asked instead of telling me that they think they like **** house.
Cheers.

Its a known ricer/jdm/drifter look mate.
Your car aint cool unless you give yourself poor light visibility at night + making your car look cheap and tacky..

Only Half Corect Bain, Yes it is popular with drifters, but having a huge area of Clear shiny gay looking Glass messes up the Appearance of the car, you use Eyelids to Blend the headlights into the rest of the car a bit better... Thats why I fitted Eyelids to my mondeo.. Eyelids just blend the headlights in better..

The first pic looked alright (i wouldnt do it), but half the replies are.. "Use contact adhesive", "Electrical tape" :bowrofl:
Are people purposely making their cars look tacky so people can laugh at them as they drive down the street?

i said fibreglass, then paint it properly so its atleast the same colour as your car, eyelids can look good if done properly, really bad if done poorly

Well i will not be using contact or electrical tape to do it cus i do wanna make it to look decent. the only thing i may do to start off with is put a bit of this white tape or contact on to see if it will look any good then if it does, take it a bit further and do it properly.
Dee has told me that she is goin to attempt it and see if they look any good and if the do then i might get her to make me some or something.
ah yes, ill get to it.. tis raining though! and im in bed...:P my lecture starts in 5mins.. fk that :D
anyway, down to the store i go

The cheapest way is to buy Headlight Protectors and mask off what level of Eyelids you are after and the paint the headlight Protectors.... Too easy.. That way they are easier to remove then if the Fuzz bust you for an illegal mod..
