The eyelids I carry (made by TK) are fiberglass. Since he's in Mexico, it made sense to send larger batches to me first so I could ship them more cheaply to individual customers.

I'll try to post pictures soon when installed on the car...as for the splitters, I asked the guy from Niabodykits...he says pictures will be soon on their website.

I haven't received the eyelids yet, but for now I have to give a good feedback on communication with niabodykits...they reply fast to all the questions and provide good information.

For those worried about supporting the vendors, I assure you that my post is nothing against them...far from it. Yarisworld is one of the most complete and respectfull automotive forum I've seen so far, and it would'nt be that complete if members would'nt provide information about new products avaible for our cars.

It also means that people can give their honest positive or negative opinions on these products...I respect that!

Here is the final result on the car....eyelids were installed yesterday. For the ones who were concerned about the quality, I have to say that I'm impressed...they are made with fiberglass (not plastic) and the paint is awesome...no difference with the original color and gloss of the car...I'm really happy with it!

I'm sure the ones avaible from our vendors is also really good quality, but these are only a second option for those like me who wanted something that covered the light a little bit more.

The direct light coming from the blinkers is completly covered by the eyelids (obvious on the picture), the light you still can see coming from the blinkers is the reflection on the bottom end of the turn signals.

I'm personnaly okay with it, since I wanted eyelids that give a more agressive look on the headlights during day and night...so I wanted them to cover a little part of the light coming from the headlight ( just to get the "agressive look during the night when the lights are on).

I don't notice a difference on a daily driving because here in Quebec people don't really care about you putting your blinkers on anyway....lots of people drive for themselves around here....

One thing that is true about any mods on a car (suspension, eyelids, hids...even sound systems), you have to always be aware of these mods and adapt the way you drive consequently....

Those look great. Personal choice to "disable" your turn signals. A nice project would be to then locate some custom turn signal lights elsewhere.

Casterqc, de dire que tout le monde se fout que les autres n'utilisent pas leurs clignotants est tellement absurde, moi je m'en sacre pas et ça me mets en crisse quand un con me coupe sans prévenir.

translation(short version) I care about using blinkers, and I don't believe i'm alone caring. Nothing is more annoying than having some (_o_) cutting me short without warning.
