can u show me specific kouki eyelids? if i am right they are rubber that covering the gabs between the headlights with bonnet..that's all.. the eye lids i have currently is in this shape..but if u want different shape such as straight and thinner..the design can be customized as long as they are not bigger than what my current eye lid is.. a pic of what you are talking about would greatly help..

Yeah, it's the plastic trim that fits along the top of the headlight. It's needed to basically complete the black line if you have a Levin grille fitted. I'll try to find some pics, but if anyone else has any, can you post them please. [Report message to a moderator]

Yeah, it just continues the black line from the indicators all the way through. It's just a thin piece of plastic, but makes a huge difference IMO. [Report message to a moderator]

the prob is the side lights and the headlights are not joined..if u see some ppl's ae86 are not aligned properly..probably if u want it perfect...go look for dave and he'll get it done on your car to make sure its perfect fit.. that's my only thoughts at the moment..

And then on the car.

..im thinking about eletrical taping the top of my lights (not on the face of the lense), only because they dont look right without the black line. But if somebody can find some of these, or even the original ones, I would be happy not to go rice spec. Smile

The jdm eyelids are metal. they attach to the headlight with screws. i have compared this to the aussie headlights and they do not havbe the screw holes. Also the glass face might be skinnier on the eyelid headlights. [Report message to a moderator]

Does the eyelid fit on the aussie headlight though? If they are identical except for the screw hole then we could easily copy them. Either fit them with a drill and a few screws or just glue. [Report message to a moderator]

Best bet to apply them is to use silicone (sikaflex) 2-3 drops on each lid is fine. I have carbon & Satoshi is right it isnt cheap at all $50 a square meter for just the carbon thats not including the clear gel & resin... Dave [Report message to a moderator]
