eyelids for gen 5s are hard to come by. anyway, they're just backed with a heavy duty adhesive

i think the best person to talk to is Sweety, she has a gen 5 sportivo with eyelids.

dunno if u can see it clearly though but it goes up to above the blinker...

Thanks for the mention Lateralus... :D

I have seen on one or two cars on this forum the eyelids Mac has but i wanted something that covered more of the headlight but still without cutting the beam. I found these eyelids from a bloke in U.S. They came primed and including postage cost me $80.

They are moulded to the contours on the headlight and as Lateralus mentioned they are attached with a heavy duty adhesive tape.

Im not sure i still have his details but i can have a search if u are interested in trying to get them. :)

The eyelids at car mate are pretty close to mine. I found mine from a ebay seller in the U.S.

Since u brought up the topic of eyelids I tried searching for him again with no success. I'll keep lookin tho and let u know.

They are stuck on with 3M tape and they are made out of fibreglass. Dont let the "stuck on" bit faze u, 3M tape is ultra strong. :D

yeah i was lil worried bout stuck on only coz i didnt think fibreglass could be stuck on
