Syndicate Kustomz eyelids painted & installed (56k, nobody likes you)
Well, since this is not a very common mod with the 5th gens, I think this deserves to be left here. I had these custom ordered from S.K. about a year ago and I finally got around to getting them painted. MacAlert was getting his body kit painted, so knowing full well there would be left-over KT3 paint, I figured this would be the perfect opportunity to get the eyelids painted for dirt cheap. $25 and I had them back the next day. Oh and I haven't applied the double sided tape yet, so I know the edges are pertruding a little. Here are the pictures, thoughts are welcome - negative or positive:

And please...people read what I wrote, they haven't been taped down yet. I know they are sticking out. Puppetmaster, you of all people (with your newbie Googlizing ways) need to read what I wrote again. :P

the paint looks decent, are they a little lighter than the rest of the car? never was a fan of the shape of the syndicate ones though. i have had theirs and now i have the autoaccessorystore.com ones and i like them a lot better. but overall...nice job

The paint is flawless, so is the match. And yes, they did cost a lot. And the edges don't stick out anymore, I have taped them down now.
Oh and I feel a little bit of a power increase around the 4500k mark. At least 15HP and 12TQ.

I don't really care. That's not what this thread is about. The chrome strip is there to protect my bumper. I was driving around with clean bumpers for 3 days, and my rear bumper got 5 different paint chips -- so back the protection went. I live in NYC, people can't park here for sh*t.
