Eyelids - Focus man. Focus. - 01-24-2006

Ok I mentioned before that I got some free product from Lakeshore Signs and Graphics. Well with the nice weather over the past couple day gave me the shance to finally get the eyelids installed. Some of you are going to say the colour doesn't match, but I think it looks good. And my opinion is the one that counts.

Here are the before and after shots.

Other than the fact that eyelids are old and "past due" i guess they look alright.

it WOULD look wayyyyyyyy better with matching colors, but like you said....your opinion is the only one that matters!

I kinda like that look. Too bad they couldn't colour match your paint. Other then that its pretty sweet. Just becareful, my friend did the vinyl eyelid mod to his car and got nailed with a $160 fine for obstructing the headlight.

I like the shape and the style, but the fact that it's not the same color really bugs me. It looks like it's unfinished, like if you put on a bodykit that was still in primer rather than painting it.

I'm a sort of a perfectionist though, I couldnt stand having mismatched colored parts on my car.

Yeah, the colour isn't close but the vinyl was free. As I posted before I stopped into Lakeshore Signs and Graffic's to buy the vinyl and this was as close as they had, and he gave it to me for free. So for a first atempt I think I did very well.

Well the cuts look flawless, and that makes it better than most of the homemade eyelids i've seen. As for the colour, it doesn't ruin the car at all and I am a picky person when it comes to matching crap too, but that looks proper, just that it'd be better to match. Good work!

you have posted enough negative comments today. Please refrain from the BS and post your car so we can now make fun of you.

His workmanship is A1 in my books and it was free.

Only thing better would be free beer.

Now post you car chinaman and let the photochop begin.

I've had a few members already PM me about chinaman. Looks like some troll of some sort. <_<

His warning has been increased and he can consider this his 1st warning.

Constructive feedback is good, but if you aint got nothing nice to say, momma says, dont say nothing at all ;)

Thanks for the warning. I did not know i was the exception to the rule. I'll be all touchy and feely from now on. Serious!

It looks good...it would look even better with the same color of the car. But still...Good job!

Eyelids - Focus man. Focus. - 01-31-2006

Thanks Guys. I will try find some vinyl closer to Liquid Grey.

But for now, I like. :P

Eyelids - Tiketz - 01-31-2006

I did that mod on my car too haha
Look up your paint code, then go to crapy tire buy the touch up paint in the little spray can and paint the vinyl eyelids.
It works!!!!

If you need more vinyl I have lots still left from my mod.

Eyelids - Focus man. Focus. - 01-31-2006

That is a great idea. I will do that. Thanks for the offer on the Vinyl. I do have some left over. I think I will try that. CTC here I come. LOL.
