eyelids for acura cl?!

Hey, what's up CL fans.
Just wondering. I've been modifying my CL slowly, but surely. However, I haven't ran into many eyelids for the headlights.
Anyone have any pics or suggestions? I'd like to have nice ones and I've searched the forum and there doesn't seem to have any information on the topic.
Thanks for the help
Bern

I think most people use colored vynal or viynel (spelling??? )


I believe you can find it at craft stores and use double sided tape to make it stay...

^^^ghey^^^....get a template made of 1/16" aluminum or sheet metal....sand and smooth it out and get it painted by a bodyshop...then you can use hot glue or some sort of strong adesive to attach it to your headlights.....I've never sone this personally but seen it done on other vehicles...came out really nice!!

my buddy put eyelids on his 97 cl, following the same style from my friends GS.
you can do it and it will look sick, but you HAVE TO HAVE A BLACK CAR. otherwise, ive seen it on silver and white cars, it does not work. if yours is black, do it. i think tape will work. i forget what they used, but i can find out if your car is black and you really want to do it.

Last time I dynoed, I gained 17 WHP.
I'm still working out some A/F ratio problems. Once those are worked out I should gain around 25WHP

eyelids used to look sweet on the older bimmer's, but on our car they don't look that hot because of the slope of the headlight on the inner portion of the light next to the grille
