Silverado Custom (Custom Eyelids)

[TB415]

So I was playing around with the idea of adding eyelids to the halogen headlights. I know some have replaced the entire grill and headlights but I was looking for something on the budget side. Please give me your thoughts. I will be replacing these since I got the wrong order of film. I was initially going to do them in gloss black to match the grill. Hopefully someone comes out with a fiberglass or carbon fiber version of these.

Definitely take that off. Maybe if it was a matching white color it would be cool but it just looks like you are a Jeep girl

I would get some tinted or colored film and do the whole headlight. I bought some smoked vinyl for the side markers but after looking at the lights and the pieces I got, it's going to look like crap only partially covered. I found some cool bluish/purple tint film I'm probably going to try in the spring. I found some awesome dual projector replacement lights for the factory halogens but they have been  out of stock since I got my truck in May. I keep hoping they'll come back in stock as that would be a HUGE improvement and not require a grill replacement, which I really like the Custom grill.

What brand were those dual projectors

[GETGONE]

DT Moto  I found them on Ebay and saved them to my watch list but have been out of stock since. They're not listed on their web page either.

Sorry, doesn't work, I'd take them off and scrap the idea as a whole, Maybe tint them with film but either way why would you want to reduce your light output? 

 

Just my .02 because you asked.

These would probably be more useful

Truth be told they don't look terrible but people put eyelids on larger headlights. They don't really go. 

 

About the only thing you could do to those headlights is put some halos in them.

Not sure why you'd want to eat into the headlight's reflector range and potentially impact your headlight function.

 

I'd ditch them.  For good.  Same with any sort of darkening films.

Agreed, the lashes are a no go but then again, it's what floats your boat.
