r33 eyelids, what do you think of these??

[NismoR34]

I am keen for some for an R34, like these:

Whereabouts in Melb are you Pashak? I am not that good with drawing stencils etc...

[NismoR34]

Does this help?

[PashaK]

not really, i need a to scale drawing. the r34 headlights, by the look of it would be very difficult.

with the r32 and r33 the headlight is reasonably flat at the front and doesnt need it to be bent horizontally, where as the r34 by the look of the pic above, it will have to bend horizontally.

i hope this makes sense...

fibreglass eyelids are moulded around the headlight, but steel is flat

[NismoR34]

Yeah they need to be bent possibly in 2 places...I will see if I can get the mrs or someone to do a scale drawing...

How about making these eyelids for the R34? I'll buy some if you can. I will get a scale drawing with measurements and shape soon. I'll copy them off AboBob at the next SAU NSW thing next week.

Ya, those ones are pretty cool too - and will probably NOT need the bends as they are smaller and just sit on the top after the bend :cooldance

Although on a black car like mine, they may not show up much? Either way at the price your asking is still worth getting a pair.

Sewid: that would be great if you could get the dwg done

what do you suggest to use to stick them on?

[NismoR34]

Silicone? Silastic?

You could use superglue or tarzans grip but if you ever wanted to take them off? yikes!

At least they would be secure though - I have heard these things get nicked [ at INASNT]

[JAS-25T]

would silcone runi the head lights?

also what would need to be done to hole them up against the lights while they are sticking, i have painted them in 3 coats of white, and 2 clear coats. and i wanted to stick them on today. but need some help with what adhesive.....silastic???.....and how to hold them on and bend them while the silastic drys.

Google is your friend: http://www.bsc.com.au/silastic/Silastic.htm

I havent done this before either but I think some clear sticky tape could be used to keep it in place until dry. Hold it in place with your hands first for a few minutes

I only say silicone / silastic because it holds really well and you can peel / scrap it off later if necessary...silicone is used commonly in automotive applications, look here [i have used the Bostik one before for similar applications: http://www.bostikfindley.com.au/distributi...re_FIO_page.htm

You could always go to a hardware store and ask for their advice - they usually know the products they sell

[NismoR34]

Use the Bostik Super Glue if you dont want it to ever come off!

Good luck!

i ended up using double sided tape from bunnings.

not the foam type stuff but the thin stuff.

ill get some pics up soon

Use the Bostik Super Glue if you dont want it to ever come off!

 

Good luck!

The problem with that is that if someone likes your eyelids more than you and decides to borrow em while you aint around, when they try and take em off ya car they will break in half (if fiberglass), like my pair and what happened to my car, or they will damage your headlight since these ones are metal.

I pulled my other one off a few days ago. I used the industrial 3M double sided tape and when that sets it sets like silastic and is a bitch to clean off ya headlights when it has been on there for a long time.

I bought some Nismo R34 eyelids and will scan them in when they arrive - you might be able to make up some copies for R34 guys.

Pashak - you still selling these?

[PashaK]

i am, not much demand for them but i got a few still.

pm me if your interested

[Ska]

Just got mine yesterday, they look awesome! Wont be put on for a while as I'll get them painted when I get my front bar and skirts painted.

SWEET!

[Unscarred711]

These are mine, fairly standard looking, that yellow one looks a bit overdone tho. Nice work with the sheet metal, can you roll gaurds ect.. coz that would be sick.

[gtrGhosTDoGG11]

I need a pair r33 ser 1, Iam looking for ones that make your head lights squint and look angry, like the 200sx s14 series 2.
