Hi,

I found these eyelids on Ebay:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=7948762310

I have a couple questions about them,

1) Are these real Mugen eyelids? because i didnt see eyelids on the mugen website?
2) They come in black, how will this look on my white 99 TL? Should i paint them white? If yes, how can i do this?
3) How do you install the eyelids?
4) How easy is it to remove the eyelids?

Thanks alot in advance

mugen STYLE

 

Yeah I got a set of these, if ya want pics just let me know. The guy I bought them off eBay for painted them my color for $20. The color was a perfect match to OEM too so I'm happy. About a 5 min install with 3M double sided tape. As easy to remove as peeling the tape off. I say get em...they look good

 

the tape holds them on??? even through rough weather? i dont get it lol


do they move around or they stay still like they're bolted on?

 

well the tape has held them on for me...I put them on in July and they lasted all summer (even with me going 120 down the highway ) and so far they've held up in the snowy New York winter. So, yeah, the seem to stay on just fine...just make sure you press the tape on hard

 

have you looked at the tape recently, any wear or anything?

 

well the tape is on the underside of the eyelids...but they still feel secure and haven't moved one inch. Here's some pics of my car http://www.acurainspired.com/gallery...69&dowhat=user

 

in my opinion, those are ugly

but on white TL, i actually think black will bring a nice contrast.

 

only some cars looks nice with eyelids, not ours....

 

The auction says so too, but I'm pretty sure these will only fit the 99-01s just incase anyone with a Type S was thinking about these.

And the 3M Double sided tape is pretty good at sticking. A lot of bodykits attach in this fashion too and they stay on just fine ... shouldn't be a big deal for a small little eyelid piece. Its not like putting it on with scotch tape or something

 

Thanks alot for all the help - Im going to buy these, and let you guys know.

I'll keep them in black at first and see how they look, if i dont like it, ill paint them white. Thanks again

 

i beg to differ, i think our cars with eyebrows and a lip kit make it look much more agressive especially if you upgrade the headlights, check pics in my sig, go for it, they have an option to paint them for you, they come out good. def get them painted to match your car

 

valuesport eyelids look nicer

 

there a link to the valuesport eyelids?

 

yea i wanna see the value sport ones

 

i think the lid will only look good on a Red firepepper TL that is kitted. I wish they made a lid that actually looks nice and attaches such a way that it prevents from asshole stealing our HIDs.

 

same thing i was thinking!!!

 

i think the eyelids would look good in chrome on nbp if it has chrome rims to match wit!

 

is there a website for the valuesport eyelids
