Default I Finally Got My Eyelids!!!

like the title says i finally got them! theyre EVOR lids and its been over a little over a month and im happy for the most part.

im dissappointed in the length it took to get them and the poor pretty much poor service from evor...... when i got them the paint on the corner tips were damaged (probably from shipping since the lids were stuffed in box that was not properly sized), but at least theyre hidden when i test fitted them.

but all in all they fit well and aside from the corners, the paint is awesome and matches the car well.....though this would be the first and last time id deal with evor...


heres a pic of the lids...they arent put on yet because my z is really dirty, the freak rain has prevented me from washing my z

Nice! Post some more pics after you install them. I like that type of eyelid. Do they come painted to match the car? Do they do it with all colors?

theyre painted upon request, its pricey though to get them painted, but they do paint all colors.

AUT eyelids also offer the same type lid and paint also any color. and if you do get lids id try out AUT from intense motorsport and talk to darren or something...you might die of age if you get them from evor...


//edit
or you can get a pair off ebay and get them painted at a shop or something, probably cheaper especially if youre gonna be painting other parts...

Hey creationv2, sorry to hear your experience with EvoR was not the best after I gave you positive feedback on them.

As I had mentioned from my experience, EvoR does not seem to respond to PMs, and they are slow at answering emails, but they did answer mine and I received my painted eyelids in less than two weeks with perfect paint match and no damage.

yah its cool, thanks for your help though. and thanks for posting up a pic
yah you said they were slow....but i took that as a day or two....not several days....and several emails and PMs...it was seriously the most trouble ive had in contacting someone who runs a business...

I ordered mine from Intense Motorsports as well. Darren is a great guy to do business with. I don't mind paying the extra $20-odd for IM vs. Evo-R. I've bought eyelids from Evo-R before and they are not symetrical. That is, the left lids were shorter than the right ones. So, what ever you did (I tried adjusting it, replacing the tape and all, about 4 times before I gave up and sold them) the lids looked crooked.

That, and it took like a month to come from Taipei, China, and for me...accountability and customer service usually means a great product and purchase satifisfaction. If you have any complaints, how much more difficult would it be to contact a merchant that does not respond well to messages and has the item shipped from Taipei?!

Mine are being shipped out today and will be on my car, hopefully, by this time next week.
