no one makes them for the TL because they look pretty bad. It makes the TL look sleepy rather than aggressive. You can make some by first making a mock up using cardboard, then make the real ones from some fiberglass sheets.

Lol at 48 days!

I agree with csmeance on this one. Eyelids look great on some cars but I think they would give the TL a sleepy look.

However, the vinyl route would be the way to go if you wanted to make a set of your own. It shouldn't cost too much to get some vinyl pieces.

Either way, good luck!

I'm not sure if the eyelids will look as good if you don't have a Ron Jon front bumper. It comes up higher on the bottom of the headlights, making kind of a lower eyelid if you will.
