PErsonally, I think eye lids look corny, and there's no real purpose to them. I'm not sure why you'd want to lessen your beam pattern on dark roads.

there are some eyelinds in the Hyper Rev Accord book (link). the information is pretty scarce, but I know BlackTSX was looking into it

if you look closely you can see them on there. i don't have a better pic. your best bet is probably to have custom ones done.

The purpose is to make it look different. They don't mess with the beam patterns.

Not a fan of the ones in the picture above. Too small and pointless.

i thought the point of eyelids was for people with headlights that are more triangular in shape..and the eyelid will cover up the top portion and make it appear more rectangular..like the one on the tsx..since our lights are already rectangular in shape...what would an eyelid do? make it narrower?

correct me if im wrong..

The only company that i know of that can get those ones pictured below is bulletproof automotive and through them they are like 195 bucks i think. If there was a decent set of eyelids at a reasonable price i would definetly be interested, but those are the only ones i know of.

How can covering up part of your headlight lens not alter the beam pattern somewhat? I guess if there's not light shining out of the entire lens, but there's definitely a possibility of cutting off part of your headlight beam. Nevertheless, I still think they look corny.

I doubt they'd come down far enough to affect the projectors on the headlights. Most of them stay above the light line and only cover some of the top.
