opinions on double eyelids
1 Attachment(s)
do u guys think that a bottom lid and a top lid look betteR? or just the top eyelid by itself?
| Rebellion | 08-07-2002 08:58 AM |
it looks all squinty or something... like your car's staring into the sun.
| SteveKerr | 08-07-2002 08:59 AM |
yeah
i dunno, looks like hes blinking heeh, I don't find that attractive at all, you might want to remove the lower one.
| oooggss | 08-07-2002 09:06 AM |
oh...this isnt my car...this is someones from a different thread to let u guys know
| stiguy555 | 08-07-2002 09:42 AM |
That isnt too bad, but I prefer no eyelids at all. They just look tacky.
| SubEd | 08-07-2002 09:53 AM |
They look cheap. If you want to mod your lights, get Morettes, or one of the other replacement options.
| Layman | 08-07-2002 10:03 AM |
You'd lose a lot of your lighting. It seems pretty stupid to me.
| Verdugo | 08-07-2002 10:17 AM |
I've got Jun eyelids on my car and they work just fine since they only block part of the turn signal...but putting a vinyl eyelid on the headlight doesn't look right to me. The light is partly shining through so you can't even tell it's there unless you're parked or you disable your DRLs. Just doesn't look right to me...

LOOKS SO DAMN CHEAP!!! At least if they made the double outta the fiberglass (i think) that JUN use's then MAYBE, but god...Reminds me of those riced out cars that make those circle's and yet u can see the light shinning threw, extremely tacky.....If your gonna get eyelids do it the JUN style...

what the!?
who is goign posting pics of my car?!
anyways, i removed the bottom lids cuz they looked kinda stupid to me. I was sent them for free with the condition that I need take pics of them on my car. I removed them shortly after the pictures.
The light does shine through the lowers with the DRLs on, but the tops are fine since they just cover the blinker.
My concern was that the tops woudl block out the blinker light too much at night, but since its vinyl, the light still shines through at night, so I kinda like it.
Argh, you may think its cheap or whatnot, but it was fun, and cheap, and i kidna like it.
but if you are going to get lids, i would prolly recommend just getting the tops. They are very easy to remove after installing them, so if you dont like em at all just peel em off and toss em. Its just $10 vs the $100 or so for juns, which i could never get myself to buy for so much moolah.

Buy some STi lights or even the morettes and you should be set. Those would be my first mods if I had a WRX. The stock round headlights just don't cut it for me, and with the "squinting eye mod"..even worst. :lol: sorry....
| Hazdaz | 08-07-2002 07:12 PM |
I don't like the botttom one at all - but thanks for posting the pic, cuz I always was curious what it might look like (even though I would have angled it the other way).
I got vinyl eyelids on mine (top only) and they look great. completely cover the turn signal (yet its more than visible when lit up). Also the angle on mine is slightly different. I like the mod cuz it makes the car look totaly pissed off.
No idea why those would look "cheap" but the Jun ones would be fine? - thats just silly. :confused:

try using black vinyl ?
wouldn't the bottom lid block some of the high beam ?

Uhmm:rolleyes: Listen carefully, JUN = HIGH QUALITY (either fiberglass or urethane, same material used on body kits). They are also angled better (meaner look) and they dont let light threw....nuff said. You cant compare.......silly.

Throw on some clear green circle stickers in the middle of each headlight and a big rubber tongue hanging out of the grill and you'll officially have transformed your car into a reptile.
| zabutter | 08-08-2002 01:01 AM |

| Hazdaz | 08-08-2002 07:21 AM |
Danny, don't be silly now: "same material used on body kits" - the hood on the car is AL, the fenders are ST, and the bumper is plastic - point is, who cares what material its made of as long as the color/finish matches. "They are also angled better (meaner look)" .. meaner is always better:D , and with vinyl you can angle them to whataver angle AND they totaly conform to the curviture of the headlights (and end up being flush), so its a perfect fit - they don't bulge out like the Juns which make them look out of place. "they dont let light threw" how is that a GOOD things?? Heck, for that reason ALONE I would never get them - no turnsignal flashing (unless you mod the side markers), and way more of an opportunity for a copper to complain bout them.
Thats bad all around.

You can see the turn signal light just fine through Jun eyelids. The inch of space is more than enough to see from a distance. I can take a picture of it if you guys want to see...

Verdugo: Please posts pix. I've seen pix of them, but never lit-up. I was not impressed with the way they looked however, since they bulge out from the headlights, instead of being totally flush/smooth with them - the rest of the sheetmetal around the head light flows right into the lights, so why would I want a Jun eyebrow bulging out from that?
DANNY: what exactly does "First off many bumpers and body parts ARE either fiberglass/urethane when you go aftermarket" have to do with it? :confused: I mentioned in the first post, it doesn't matter what material they are made of as long as the color/finish matches. So if thats the case, then why is it such a 'no-no' to use vinyl eyelids?
"SURE LOOKS ALOT BETTER than a 'almost' color matched eyelid glowing up".. Then I take it your not a fan of some cars (specifically VWs) that have them 'blacked-out' taillights that then glow red? Either way, the color matches as perfectly as the different body panels do - and no one can say that Subaru's paint and color matching is the industry best. On top of that, the vinyl is opaque until the turn signal is on, so its not semi-transparent, but since it does 'glow' when the turn dignal is on, it lets you position the eyelids to completely cover the turn-signal area, instead of forcing you to still leave an inch exposed since the Juns are not.
I personally don't care if someone likes Jun or Vinyl eyelids - or none at all, I just find it kinda sad that some people think that as long as its the more expensive route, then its the 'better' route. Thats kinda ridiculious.

The headlights actually curve inward on the sides, so they're not totally flush with the rest of the body. If anything, the Jun eyelids are completely flush with the body.
In any case, I'll take pictures after work tonight.

No double lids...in fact, if you can muster the fun coupons, go for the JDM lights. Even sharper looking than the Morettes.
| DannyGT | 08-08-2002 02:06 PM |
Your pathetic....If you knew me, you would know I go outta my way to make sure I get the BEST price...I hate when poeple get raped, and IMO, yes they are maybe like 10-20 bucks to much...BUT I also feel the look and quality could NEVER be matched....color matched and flush to the body lines...like I said dont argue, your WRONG...Oh and about the Vdubs, I live around VW heaven.....So you cant argue with me there on what looks good on them....Those smoked out taillights that come in numerous colors HAVE red lense's inside so they can make it legal....so to speak, no where near in comparison with cheap vinyl eyelids.

Definitive pictures of turn signals

Excuse my sarcasm, but I'm sick of people asking me why I've done the "wrong thing" by making my turn signals impossible to see with my Jun eyelids. This isn't the first time...at least Hazdaz is civil about it. People have told me that I'm an f'n idiot for putting them on in the past, so if anyone in the future says the same thing to me, I'm going to shove these pictures down their throat! :lol:

Thanks for the pic VERDUGO.
OK, first off, sicne you do have a blue car, if ya like the look of the eyelids, your basically focred to get Juns since I really doubt you'd find vinyl that blue color. Silver/black/white is a totaly different story. Also, the "bulge" thing I was talking about that bugs me about the Juns is kinda shown with the arrows below. To me the Juns make the headlights look WAY too much like eye balls and then the eyelids look just a little too "real" (cuz they come out from over the eyeball). I just am expecting the car to BLINK.
The other things that bugs me about those is that the gap at the top (going to the sheet metal) is too small - its like butting up against it (and not perfectly even), BUT every other seam on the car is WAY bigger. I cut my vinyl right to the edge of the headlight, so all the body-panel seams are consistant. Ofcourse the last reason is that the Juns just don't come down far enough to completely cover the turn-signal area (they can't since they wouldn't let the light shine though).
I do appretiate you posting those pix though since I had alwasy wondered what they loook like with the blinkers on.
Atleast you HAVE eyelids on your car, as opposed to DANNY, who just wants to use up some of that pent-up hot-air of his.

VERDUGO, dude, your exactly right, thats why some dumbas$s like DANNY should shut it, when he thinks his opinions matters, or worse, when he thinks his is more correct than someone elses. Far from.
If DANNY wants to say that HE doesn't like them, FINE, no problem. If he wants to spew out crap how they don't match in color - VERY WRONG (on a silver/black or white car). Or how they can'tbe flush with the body lines - once again very wrong, since infact the Juns butt-up too much to the sheetmetal, while the vinyl you can cut right to where the actual headlight ends (thus even seam all around).

Wow, umm, so "original". :rolleyes: Ya got everything from the ho-hum headlights, to the god-awful, gawdy gold rims. Oh wait, correction: ricey as$s rims - considering no one outside of a few freaky Subaru enthusists have any clue as to why rims on a Subaru might be gold. :rolleyes: You must be proud of your originality. :rolleyes:
And once again DANNY boy, shut it when you don't know what your talking about.

HAHAHA -- My car riced out ??? are you serious you POS ??? I have NO stickers, THAT does INCLUDE Vinyl eyelids...I am one of very few who has these rims, because supposedly they stopped bringing them over to the US...And I got more engine work to blow your riced out POS outta the water....My list consists of quality parts, (I dont settle for crap like you do)....While still paying a good price for them....Im sure 70% of i-club would disagree with your statement about the gold rims....But to be honest...go over to JDM land, and you'll see mitsu's, honda's etc etc. putting different style gold/yellow/mag type rims on, AND LOOKING better than anything you've seen.....Listen, like I said, GO PUT YOUR VINYL on, and when it comes time to SHOW and GO, we'll see who would wins that contest.....I bet you like those COOL LED nozzle sprayers too right ??

I have the upper Vinyl eyelids on my car and I think for the money they look great. I not even gonna comment on the Rice vs. Not Rice thing, because I guess I would be called a Ricer because I have stickers on my car, but as long as companies keep giving me their products to race with, I'll keep puting their stickers on my car.
DannyGT your car looks good!

RallyT: Your car is gorgeous man, good job.......There is a difference when you race and are endorsed by companies and such....BTW -- Your eyelids...Did you have them painted WRB , the pic is a bit dark....I cant tell....I hope you understand there is a difference when the would rice is being used.....and your car is far from being riced out....And dont get me wrong, cars like AVO, or shawrf1's car look very clean, even with the stickers listing there mods....all depends how its done...I just dont like when people put other quality products down....Just because it costs a lil more......He said it doesnt really matter on a black/silver/white car...well IMO it does....why would you settle for somthing that comes "close" to the color, when you can have durable high quality eyelids that can be color matched perfect....Especially on the black wrx's there not really black, they have alot of blue....so I would think it would look tacky in certain light when see FLAT black eyelids with a midnight black car that has a blue pearl in it....whatever.....

Stuff
Danny, Thanks man.
I can see were your coming from about using quality parts, I think JUN makes great products and their eyelids are a good product from what I have seen. I don't have the JUN eyelids beleve it or not they are vinyl and match dead on to the WRB paint. I am evetually gonna put in a set of the carbon fiber Rally lights, (the real deal, just like what's on Lovells's car, with the functional intake scoops and I will also throw on a carbon fiber extracter hood)
Most of the product's on my car are there for a purpose as well as looking good, that's why I went with the carbon fiber replacements on my car (Scoop, Front End, Wing Stands) they add character to the car but also save weight as well as improve aerodynamics at track speeds.
I am also very picky when it comes to parts on my car, I usually end researching everything for about a month before I decide to buy it, especially if I have to depend on it to work under track conditions, I guess that's why I am still banging my head against the wall trying to decide on which race seats and which breaks I want to buy. :lol:c

HeHeHe -- I hear ya....BTW -- I tryed finding the ACTUAL functional wrc lights, where are you getting them from ? These were the closest possible one's I could find.....I love them tho......And I can cut out the vent part VERY easily...Im also getting in on the CF prova hood group buy, looks the best out of all the hoods I've seen for wrx's.....

I think the only way a dumba$s like DANNY boy there is gonna figure out that the color matches EXACTLY and his opinion is meaningless is by taking a hammer and bustin a hole in that empty head of his since its not getting in though his ears. You have repeated shown that your the type of person that just wants to SAY that you have so and so type of products and think (and I use that term very loosely) that if it costs lots of money, its 'gotta' be better. You have also repeatedly said the same WRONG things over and over again for no other reason than to possibly convince yourself that its true. :rolleyes:
There is a HUGE difference in spending good money for quality on a 'structural' or 'wear/fuctional' part that is involved with safety or speed or handling and TOTALLY different in dropping 1/10th the cost on a aesthetic part that looks the same and serves the same purpose (and actually in this case, the pic above shows that the Juns don't fit that great). Get a damn clue.
If ya don't like a part because of YOUR messed-up head, then fine, but say so. If your trying to knock something just cuz your a dumbas$ and have nothing better to do, then you better be ready for me to blast you every chance I get. Oh, and the reason I said those gold rims of yours look ricey as hell is to prove a point. I personally think they look hideous (along with any other 'gold' on a car), BUT i purposefully phrased it the way I did to pisss off little bittches, like you. I COULD have said that I don't like Gold rims and left it at that, but I prefered to use a blanket statement and label them 'rice', which is the type of crap that your trying to pull.
RALLY: Your car does look good - ofcourse watch out, cuz putting a peice of vinyl on your car automatically makes its quite ricey - atleast according to the "all knowing" Danny boy there. Idiots like Danny would want those stickers make out of ABS plastic or steel, and welded to the car so they are made of "quality materials". :rolleyes:

Rally headlight's
I am gonna have a set of the Rally lights custom made for me, and possibly organize a buy on them not sure yet as this is still in the prelim planning stages.:D
| DannyGT | 08-09-2002 02:42 PM |
RallyT: Cant wait to see the way they come out good luck with that.....
Hazdaz: The only thing your blasting is hot air outta ya ass.....I've also repeatedly told you GO AHEAD and do the vinyl, I dont care.......and in a lil competition, we'll see who would win in looks AND not to mention speed....Im tired of this BS, talk your ***** and **** -- you talk this ***** about me thinking "IF it costs more its better". NO I dont think that way at all, BUT I have seen both with my own eyes, and you dont compare the 2.....Go ahead man, go for it......dont 4get the neon shift knob too....

I don't know what you mean by "bulging out." Here's some pics of mine:

The headlights actually curve inward on the sides, so they're not totally flush with the rest of the body. If anything, the Jun eyelids are completely flush with the body.
In any case, I'll take pictures after work tonight. [/B][/QUOTE]
Nice ride man! I have the exact same setup (blue "I" badge, Jun eyelids, clear corners)
Edit = O yeah, same color WRX too :)
