Default Eyelids

Hi everyone, just wanted to get opinions from people who have eyelids on their Z. I am interested in getting some but I would like to know which company is better to buy from as far as quality and fitment.

www.intensepower.com for 160 shipped.

www.evo-r.net for 129 plus shipping.

Thanks.

I got mine from jay (evo-r). Paint match was great as well as fitment. Only downfall was that it took longer than what he told me, but he always kept me updated.

Well I will chime in here...

Had Carbon Fiber EVO-r eyelids. I had paint issues with a place up here after they were installed and when i went to take them off they snapped..Fitment was great, quality was great of the weave.. No complaint just bad luck on this set..

EVO-R Fiberglass second pair they were substantially thicker then the Carbon ones.. Did not lay entirely flush with hood.. Actually stuck up about 1/2 that was after sanding the hell out of them.

Ordered AUT eyelids from Intense power in Carbon fiber since they are thinner by 1/4 inch or more... Quality EXCELLENT Fitment EXCELLENT Price EXCELLENT

Personally the intense power AUT design are actually about 1/2 inch-1 inch longer and follow the line of the hood better. The pic in my car domain is of the evo-r fiberglass.

I recommend hands down coming from having 3 sets go with intense power AUT design (short) or Evil eyelids


Goodluck


Edit... Figured I would throw a pic up of the EVO-R fiberglass version you can see how they dont come all the way down to meet the hood... The new AUT intense ones do though

Bat, I took the vinyl route over a year ago. I have had many people tell me I will regret it because eventually the vinyl will cause my headlights to crack. How much truth is there to that and does it matter if it rarely sees the sun?(outdoor shows)

WHAT!@)*!@*!##!????? Who told you that? Vinyl isnt going to eventually make your headlight crack.... SOrry for the good news...

I wouldnt recommend cutting the vinyl on the bare headlight but bats overlays are NOT going to make your headlight crack bro!!
