I had some eyelids custom made my Impulse (who, btw, is an AWESOME guy to do business with) and when they came to me, it appeared that the packaging foam stuff ate the clear off and scuffed up the paint. Impulse was kind enough to refund me some moo-lah, and now I'm stuck to decide if I should re-paint the eyelids myself, take them to a shop and have them professionally done, or sell them off.







(ohes noes!!! my front license plate!!! )


The passenger side fit is DEAD on, and even snaps in. The driver side has to be installed off the car to make it perfect. The fiberglass is near perfect, I just can't decide to keep them or sell them.

Opinions?

 

A farther away shot of the car would help with my judging.

 

Ignore the fact my car is dirty as hell... it hasn't been washed in about a month and a half. It's getting professionally detailed sunday.







Those better?

 

um.... *cough cough* did you actually read the thread, or look at the pictures?

I have fiberglass eyelids, made by impulseballer..... the paint got fucked up... it needs re-done... fix them myself, have a shop do it, or sell the eyelids... nothing to do with painting anything on my headlights. I think that's ghetto as hell

 

Oh **** my bad bro....lol I feel stupid as hell now. I would paint them myself. WOW I feel like an ass now.

 

i was wondering where you were getting at... just a shameless plug for the 'ol how-to, eh?

 

LOL, I'm on a few different anti-biotic pills and Vicaden from my hand injury so I get loopy and ****.

 

Those eyelids look good, and painting is easy. Some 1000 -1500 grit, a good cleaner, and some new GM Black spray and they'de be done in an hour.

 

oh, and there's a dip or two in the finish. it's not 100% smoothed out, so I'd need a little sandable primer

 

There you go, you're already on top of things!

 

i know what i HAVE to do, i just suck at painting things, not to mention I want that same OEM gloss

 

Wet sand and buff like hell. For no runs or anything lite coats and a bunch of wax.....
