Eyelids

Anyone have an idea of what it will cost to get the eyelids painted at a body shop? I just ordered them from Greg this morning. I know it wont be that much but Im looking for a ballpark.
Thanks

Why not just get clear GTS covers, use some tape and then spray?

That's what 1hotmax did.

I know what 1hotmax did, but I dont like that look. The eyelids Greg is selling are just like the ones on the Bimmers and Audis, they are custom molded to fit the top of the headlight, giving a much much better look than the cheap GTS/tape/spray method. They come straight from the mold in a dull white, my Max is black so thats why I asked what a body shop would charge. I prob. could do it myself though with the right paint.

Re: i say do it

don't try and paint it yourself. i don't think it will look as good. if you're worried about the price, go to Maaco or something. I'm sure they don't charge alot. but a body shop might charge you $50 if they don't know you. try and get someone else to get them painted with you.
