custom eyelids

[MT]

Howdy all,

recently bought some cascade blue coloured vinyl off Kcorro so i could make me some custom eyelids as i've gone off the standard eyebrow straight across shizzzzz

so... i want peeps to design me some eyelids, as wild as u want!!!

here's a photo to start with!

and here's my first attempt - please note im terrible with MS Paint

so yeah, gimme some ideas and i'll see what will look good!!

cheers!

How where can u get this vinyl (but in silver) so I can make my eyelids to fit my headlight protectors. Thanks in advance for the help

O by the way here are some ideas even though they may seem plain i reckon they are damn stylish! (the first one is just for comparative reasons)

thanks for the options, but i want to get away from the straight lines as that is similar to the normal eyelids and also goes against the natural shape of the light.

as for the vinyl no idea mate i bought it off Kcorro why not try PMing him for info

my attempt :P

[kcorro]

you dont need vinyl for that but just $2 electrical tape

vinyl is from a pro signwriting shop. the product mickytee got is made by 3M.

my attempt :P

hahaha dead rolla :P

Not sure if you have seen this Micksta but it's pretty much the real deal of your initial design. My opinion is to stay clear of this one though

I like grim88's 1st design.

Beautiful Marcus that's what he wants

Oh: Is the vinyl thick enough to prevent the light shining through when you're driving?

thanks brandon i've seen a similar design, i think it looks not as good cos the eyelid sticks up a fair bit whereas vinyl will sit flush with the body of the car.

marcus's design is exactly what i want on the car... freakin perfect. but will be hard to get that perfect.

Brandon what design do u like?

anyways, keep em coming fellas im getting ideas

[CAP]

Personally I like Grima's No2 design.

if thats the look ur after, why dont u pop the headlight open and paint it?

im sure ive seen a pic of someone who painted the headlight the same colour as the car.. may have been on one on of the US sites.. but yeh. if its that shape ur after then painting will follow the lines u want

I was thinking about using vinyl, but i was thinking that perhaps the light might get a bit to hot for it??

[Mikey]

vinyl won't look as shiny as if fibreglass painted would it?

[D'Ice]

talk about a concept hehehe it was supposed to be flames but it kinda turned out like bird flying or sumthin lol

[Mopp]

Heres my thoughts, same top halfs as a few guys, but i think a thin strip along the bottom would work well,what i was going to do, i wanted to do vinyl, but i think ill make my own out of fibreglass, if i get my a*se off the couch.

i just copied your design :)

i do like the straight edge design because it has an agressive look to it and it would be easier to produce
