Do a search for "shorty" eyelids. Those are the ones you are referring to. For neons, there are pretty much only two types: "s-style" and "shorties". Other than that, people have made one-off customs like seen above.

:hello1:

Yeah, mine are starting to peel off actually, but when I decide to tear them off, I'll make a stencil line around the current ones and paint the next ones on. :twisted:

Mine have bubbles and holes in them. When I can acquire some carbon fiber cloth, I'm going to trace them out and make my own carbon fiber ones. :twisted:

Uh, well, you can't really put eyelids on those headlights because of the placement of the turning signals... Unless you did some sort of translucent / tinted ones.

i can see how the "s" style wont work will the shorties fit or is it no eyelids unless translucent/vinyl

just wire your turn signal to the three led's on the sides and use the top light as maybe a daytime running light or just not wire it up at all.

that would work i forgot that there were the leds on there that would work and would look sweet

shorty eyelids work fine on the projectors Image even if you didnt wire the turn signals to the 3 leds enough of the top bulbs shows so that could be used as a turn signal.

did you have to heat mold the shorties and what ones did you buy that fit with no mods to them

they're from carbonbydesign, the only fitment issue is since they are for the srt hod, theyre is a small gap in the front if you look closely

oh that gap wont be a problem i have an SRT-D so i think they will fit fine

well you both are correct it is orange if you go to the picture post and look at the one from boyscoutgonebad thats mine that is in there.

and seing how it is orange should i do black shortys or orange paint matched shorty eyelids

colormatched most likely, unless u have other black accents i.e. tinted tails, sidemarkers, dark tinted windows. its all ur personal preferences anyway.

yea i supose if i do black other things and i plan on palinting the good roof and trunk black i could paint the eyelids aswell or leave them orange.
