oh btw I used two strips of double sided mounting tape to secure them. I tried pulling em off and they wouldn't budge. Don't forget clean both sides with alcohol and then put the tape strips on the eyelid first. Then press and hold until a good bond forms.

damn it!!! NICE!!!! I NEED EYELIDS!
I wanted em before but didnt think I could pull off matching the paint and im not paying an ungodly amount to have them painted at a shop..
I could always take your advice and find a can.. but how well do you think it'd turn out? it doesnt have to be 100% for me, but something that noticably matches.. if that makes sense.. and i'd prolly limit the expense to 40-50..
take night pics dude!!!
