Yeap, got the custom ones made from CF, and now trying to install them. People said try double sided tape, but I'm afraid its not going to hold it well and they might come off. So i might glue them on. Should I do that? Whats the best glue for plastic/CF outthere? thanks for any input

 

no get the 3m exterior doublesided tape, that **** is strong, it used to hold my lip on. btw how much did you pay? i want to buy a set

Thats the post

 

used the red colored 3m tape it is amazing

 

Eyelids are the ****. I got mine from ParadoX and love em.

 

I agree....yet was flamed for mine. I used 3m double sided tape,

 

no offense but i dont think thoes look good at all. they look pretty good on the headlight but then they cross over the gap onto the corner and just look awful. the headlighst look good but the corners look cheap. i think you would need cefiros for it to look good.


also, that red 3M double sidded exterior tape fuking sucks @ss. i tried to use it for my front lip and it just keeps comming off. that stupid tape is the reason i have ran over my lip....TWICE!

 

Back to my other question...should I just glue them on? If i'm going to do it, I might cut eyelids in half, one for headlights and one for corner lights.

P.S.: Whats the best glue outthere for plastice/CF???

 

DO NOT glue them. Use the real thin Double Sided tape. When I say thin, I mean half of the type of Double Sided tape that you're thinkin of.

 

May i ask, why not glue them???

 

i do body work everyday and i use the 3m tape 100's of times to put on stuff like body kits etc....... i have some on my freinds 300zx for2 years on his wings west bumper and it hasnt come off yet.just clean the area with some pre clean o or something that takes wax off and i dont know of any good glue to use

 

The double sided 3m tape should hold fine. This is what I'll be using to install my CF eyebrows and my CF mirror covers once I get home.
The tape is really strong, if its not sticking for some of you guys, then your not prepping the area correctly prior to the install.
If you wish not to do the 3m tape, try epoxy. Bear in mind that using an epoxy will pretty much mean that will be premanent install. If you try removing the eybrows after they have been epoxied im sure they will break and be destroyed.

 

hollatchaboi where did you get those from? they look tough

 

If you want, you can use some clear silicone from any auto parts store.

It'll stick great and whenever you decide you want them off for any reason, just pull on them and the silicone will peel off like rubber leaving the headlight and eye lid undamaged and un-sticky.

I used it to stick on some carbon fiber inserts in my rear emblem and it came out perfect. I've also used it to stick on my blind spot mirror, worked great.
