Calling all Eyelids
Been searching this site for pics of 8's with the R Magic style headlight eyelids. Most of the cars I've found are either black, red, or the eyelids are in carbon. But I want to see it in other colors and from various angles.

I've also been trying to find pics of the EVO-R eyelids. I want to see if they look flatter than the R Magic ones. I like the look of the R Magic eyelids and have been thinking of getting a pair. But I don't like the way they're not flush with the fender. Don't like or want the cheap decals either, even though those would be flush.

So far the only yellow pic I could find was this one from EAST MOON's collection.

95 views and nobody wants to show off their eyelids?

Guess, I'm just going to have to borrow more pics to get things started. I believe the red and silver cars have the EVO-R eyelids and the Black & White cars have the R Magic's. From the photos, looks like the EVO-R's are a little flatter.

Anyone got a pic of the EVO-R in Yellow?

I also want to know if the R-Magic eyelids come painted or not. They sell them on rotaryextreme, and they don't come painted.

you gotta buy regular ones and have them painted your color. I wouldnt trust pre-painted because the color might not match perfectly. your cars paint is older and may have changed shades.
