Would you guys prefer the eyelids to stick to the headlights or the hood? (Different approaches are needed for each application)
Who is willing to be the GB recipient in the US? Please let me know
How much would you guys be willing to pay for these? Please PM me what you would be willing to pay, and I'll try to meet you guys halfway.

I promise to post pics as soon as the 1st pair is finalized. I am stoked to see what this guy can do with the right materials...

1. If you can include the proper extra strong, thin tape, I think it would be better...
2. Stuck on the headlights would definitely be easier
3. If I were in the US....

4. Whatever is fair

1. same as everyone so far, provide the tape
2. Stuck on headlights

4. Just dont go exceed the limit.

Quick update: Looks like the Type A molds are a go! I was told by the fabricator that the 1st pair should be done no later than wednesday!

As far as CF and/or Type B eyelids, they may have to be a bit more expensive to cover the cost involved in making just one or two pair. Plus they may take longer to make. If you guys are cool with that, then let me know.

*tk-421* · 06-24-2007, 10:17 PM

On that same note, I'm thinking about making different designs for you guys. So far, I've found some eyelids made by Black Yaris. He fabbed these using vinyl, but the final design would also be done in fiberglass and color matched accordingly.

What do you guys think of these? Would anybody be interested in this design?

yrsdrgn · 06-24-2007, 10:19 PM

I still prefer Type A...............how much for a carbon fiber mock up of Type A eyelid? I want carbon fiber ones!!! LOL

eTiMaGo · 06-24-2007, 10:52 PM

A is for Awesome FTW... They fit perfectly in the edge lines of the hood, almost a factory look. Black Yaris's style is perhaps a more aggressive design but IMO does not suit the car as well.

but that's just one man's opinion

yrsdrgn · 06-24-2007, 10:55 PM

I think Black Yaris's eyelids should be Type B for badass =P as for mine......they're just out of place LOL

Kioshi · 06-25-2007, 02:37 AM

I perfer type B, but seeing Black Yaris's ones....I'm up for that if you can give that a go w/ color matching..

I'll call the dude and let you know.

yrsdrgn · 06-25-2007, 08:53 PM

any price updates? or pics of the first pieces?

Black Yaris · 06-25-2007, 09:31 PM

This is the best straight on pic I have, I will get a better one here tomorrow, but mine just give a REAL agressive look, puts a little scowl on her face

yrsdrgn · 06-25-2007, 09:46 PM

slothman86 · 06-27-2007, 07:48 PM

I am heading to a local DuPont store tomorrow to attempt to get color-matched eyelids for everybody that is on the list. I'm hoping that the color codes alone might be enough to get an exact match.

I came back a few hours ago after a glimpse at the first pair of eyelids. They still need to be cut to specs and cleaned up, but they fit the car almost perfectly as it is right now!

We added reinforcements to the eyelids at the sides, so that they can be pasted on the area that's right below the hood. The guy did a pretty bang up job! He says he'll have at least 3 pairs ready by Friday.

I didn't take pictures since I was already out of my house by the time I got the call to meet him, but I promise to take a few shots of the prepped eyelids ASAP. I will also be posting prices for these babies as well (but expect to pay somewhere in the vicinity of $60-$80 this time around).

yrsdrgn · 06-28-2007, 01:02 AM

alright!!! I can't wait for them!!!!!

eTiMaGo · 06-28-2007, 03:31 AM
