i think there is a vendor here that sells them, check in the vendor section. i bought some off of ebay for 19.99 they were real flimsy, but did the job. i had to have them painted though. they also have the carbon fiber ones too ( much better material i would imagine). anyway the ones i got from ebay look decent enough after the paint and installation, here is a pic.

I believe they are NIA eyelids that are sold by the vendors.

Linus you have a pretty badass front end!

i got them off ebay, at that time the upper and lower was bieng sold as a set for 175 and they are a plastic chrome finish, you will need to paint them if you want to rid the chrome, or plastip. i had plastidip on the upper and lower grills, then peeled it off and just had it painted.

Are the eyelids just held on by 3M tape?
