"Eyelid" on headlights
So I recently added my first mod to my car, black kidney grills. Easy to install and took less than 10 minutes. But now I'm looking at the "eyelids" I would call them on the headlights, which are inside the actual light, and wondering if anyone has blacked these out at all. (I haven't seen any posts on the forum about this.)
A friend said he saw something where you could black it out from the outside. Here's the before and after pictures of my car with the old and new grills. |

Yea, I took a chance a bought the eyelids off ebay, was disappointed by the fit but they'll do for now. From distance they look good enough, if it bothers me over time I'll prob replace them with the ones from RWCarbon
