Eye Lids...

[4drftn]

iv just bought eylids for my r33, dunno if i will fit them as yet....can i get a bit of feedback on them if you have them fitted. Do they collect condensation under them or anything? or your comments on them... whether your a lover or a hater ect.

thanks

[R33GOD]

im not a fan of them. they look tacky. was going to buy them til i saw them on a r33.

[shultram]

defo not broseph in my opinon (like anyone gives a f**k wat i think) they look ricey, unless they add a few kw's or chicks really really dig em put em on the banned list

[H@ME]

Any more feedback, i was thinking about putting them onto my R33 as well...an one got pics etc

[r33madd]

I really like them and have some on my car. here is a pic sorry about the size and quality

I personally do not like them as I think the stock lights look nice as they are - moreover, if you just rely on the double-sided tape to stick these eye lids on, they will not stick for long and part of them will become undone - some people super-glue them on which is not recommended as if you want them off they will leave permanent scaring etc.

The above are just my ideas.

Mine are only taped on and have been on for about 6 months now. but it was a very strong tape.

but hey dude its personal preferance.

series 1 look awsome series 2 dont look that good honestly.. but use sikaflex to hold them on they never move... and dont cause any adverse effects

[Munkyb0y]

i spotted an R34 and an R33 with these during the week

they look crap imo

cheap stick-on rice

so much better without them

[dnbutts]

meh, not a fan of them, dont need them if you have a S2 r33 i rekon, eyes look perfect enough as is!

[jazza08]

That silver 33 is proof, makes the car look SO much more aggresive. Looks even better on 34s! Eyelids FTW

the ones i bought have double sided tape, nowing now i most likley wont use them... unless there is a better more permanent way... not glue though

mainly got them because my headlights were grubby and untidy so i thought they would also help mask the uglyness... but i have since bought new headlights...

That looks like a 34 front on a 33 ???

Look fellas, with Eyelids, you gotta be really careful as sometimes it can make the car look worser not better... it's personal preference so you gotta modify, add cosmetics to your ride the way you want it to be and the way you want it to represent you on the road - stuff what others think.,.. it's your ride, your the owner of it, do it to your heart's content.

There's a new trend out nowadays... eyelids that are pad of a kit or bonnet so it looks stock and it actually just covers on from the bonnet and is not separate, this makes it look tough...

I like the eyelids, it sets them apart from the stock looking front ends. All up painted they cost me about $60, I had them on my car for about 4 months until it went to Willowbank and they both flew off at 3/4 track. I was pissed off at the time, but i spose its pretty funny now. At 120mph the double sided tape is shit. Like it was mentioned above use sycaflex or silicone.

This a pic of my car with the eyelids, my opinion is it definately looks better.

[4drftn]

any alternatives to fasten them on? dont really wanna use sikaflex or glue though... but at the same time my car doesnt see the track, double sided tape probably ok for daily driving OFF THE CLOCK!
