IMO you should use vinyl and save youself the trouble of buying eyelids, having them painted, sticking them on with 3M tape only to have them fall off on the freeway several months later.
if you have a minute take a look at a pic in members rides and check out what i did...

There are 3M tape that you can buy anywhere... or you can use double sided tape that body shops use. As for painting them... PM me.

all you need is vinyl in anycolor you want the eyelids, then just cut out the basic shape you want and apply it just like you would any regular graphics on a car; with a water bottle, squeege and heat gun. takes time but in the end, it looks a lot cleaner than plastic eyelids.
by the way, I drove by a spotspro event last night in lakewood, was gonna stop by but felt overdressed for the occasion. PJ night. I'll try to swing by next time maybe.
