not alot but I am going to buy the JDM version of the eye lids and try them out for looks. So if anyone wants a pair of aurora blue ones let me know because I will have two sets. I believe the JDM style are a little different looking but not that much different.

his are vinyl the last time I looked. I got all my stuff on ebay. They are all unpainted and they need to be cut a little to fit right, and I have access to factory paint colors so MM3Canuck, if I can get galaxy I will be more than happy to repaint them for you. You have a sedan?

well i use a flexable primer first ... 3 coats, then 3 coats of color and then 3 coats of clear. Yes, I will see what I can do for ya. Total cost for everything for mine was about $90 USD not really sure what you are looking to pay.

I have no idea but I did get my other eye lids in and I am going to be painting them soon so I now have two pairs of eye lids and need to sell a pair. Asking 70 dollars, and if you want a different color I will be more than happy to get it for you since I have access to factory oem colors. Price might be increased though since I would have to purchase more paint. Just PM me if interested.
