Well I suppose that's enough procrastination.. I think I've had his Ebay page bookmarked for over a year so I'm off to buy these.

These look really good I think. I like that they don't have the sharp thin pieces jutting down along the inside. It also looks like they're mounted very flush, which is nice because a lot of eyelids look like they're just stacked on and they stand out too much.

The finish on the paint looks pretty good to me - especially considering it was rattle canned! More pictures would be awesome if possible!

well its been a month now with them on, and its been raining none stop over and over, and its been hot like in the 100s, everything seems good, and i clean them like how i clean my car, im very happy with them and how it takes off the heat and covers the sun spots that the lights gets over time. it really helps i think, the one thing i have to say is that people look at my car alot more

I just ordered some eyelids and paint - I think the look might be a bit too aggressive for my car, but I want to give it a go.
