Alright so heres the latest update its an email from NIABODYKITS:

Albert, Everyone in the group buy will get a discount. the bigger the group the bigger the discount. as far as coming up with a design please ask if anyone in the forums lives in the Miami area and can pass by our shop to come up with a few designs, after that we'l let the group decide. Feel free to give them my contact information.

Sucks they don't come painted... I like the straight ones though; look super agressive

This is one thing I never asked about eyelids.... do they come with a heavey duty adhesive to stick them to the headlights? and do they block your headlight projection at night at all?

they may be cheap( price wise), they may be replicas , but they are top quality, if they were not very well made & fit perfectly , I would post otherwise or at least steer others away.

just one negative if you could call it that, they dont come with tape, user option to use silicone or double sided tape which is hard to find the thin stuff

btw there are 2 different shapes , so everybody wont have the same look

OR

for $95 more get kei eyelids - ebay # 280483919517

Alberto,

*Thank you for the link, i see that people are interested in them but

are concerned with the price. I also saw that there is an ebay eyelid

for $30. our eyelids will run for retail for $50.00 primered WITH REAL

3M DOUBLE TAPE INSTALLED. and about $85 for them painted. Of course

that is retail, with the group buy you guys will get a discount. I

found someone in Miami with an rx8 that he can pass by our shop for a

design but i would need to know if that price is good for everyone.

keep me updated.

So thats my latest update to everyone interested.

I would be interested, pricing sounds good tbo. For me I'm just wondering about the design like everyone else. I know I would love to find something a bit more agressive than the KEI's.

$30 on the link posted for primered knockoffs, or $50 (a little less with the GB) for the guys in this thread? I'd pay an extra 20 for different looks.
