In an attempt to not duplicate the "yes or no eyelid" thread, do you think this Material would be acceptable to use for a vinyl eyelid?
Thank ye

Why would you want to have eyelids.... dude, u should do the bottom eyelid too... and then angel eyes for the pupils and ****... any while your at it, do ears and a nose, and teeth in your grill. Booyah!

Haha, kuz we's tights- I love tragedy

Just bustin your *****.

I couldnt deal with that first site- it kept redirecting me to the homepage because their frames arent working well with my browser. I've seen vinyl eyebrows. The real eyebrows look a little better because they flow off the hood better. What would be dope is if you put the eyebrows inside of your headlights- I havent seen anyone do that yet- vinyl would be perfect for that.

would angel eyelids blind less people once I get HID plug and play?

^ nope. Do a real retrofit and adjust the cutoff shield. Plugs and play HID's are just a mess as far as glare and beam pattern is concerned.

..so how much would it be to do a retrofit?

depends how good you are if you diy. projectors maybe $100 for a pair, $100 for spare set of oem lights, $100 for hid ballasts, another $50 for bulb. i think the cheapest you could hope for is $400 for everything. eyelids do not affect the light output since they sit on top.

well gearbox pointed it out. Only reason I was considering vinyl was to fill the upper right corner of the headlight. The majority of the basic eyelids line up with the hood and fender only. The only exception I have noticed is a ebay kind with a offset inner end piece. Guess it is for the best though, I only wanted to keep them on for a little while and maybe some pictures. Just something different for a little bit.

so your'e talking about an eyelid like this?

exactly like that, except the inner corner piece by the grill is bothering me. It has some extra piece on it that makes it look odd.

I don't like how they look on that model. you know what I wouldn't use vinyl on high heat parts.
