where can you purchase eyelids? Do they paint them to match car?

 

Start at post #1 and read through...
you'll have everything you need to know!

 

best n00b advice evAr! well, 2nd of course to Stickies!!!

 

Hey Nismo - will andy (eyelid designer) be able to post pics even though he only has 2 posts?

 

Nismo, I am learning...

 

as far as i know, only people who can't post pics simply don't know how. he can't start a new thread, but this one is where they should go anyway. i'd post them, but i'm off to work soon. if he has trouble, you can always do it.

 

Okay...so...uhh....where are the pics?

 

They're not coming...........They're not coming..........
It's all over.........

 

Since Andy has been busy, Here are some prelim pics that I took - I will let Andy put his up later with specs on how to purchase. Hope you guys like the new mean machine...









And here's Andy working his magic

 

They look pretty good but I have one question. For the members with Smoke (like myself),Red Opulence or Majestic Blue, how does he plan on coming close to those colors? Silver, Black and White are easy. I'm interested but if I cannot get them close to Smoke, I won't buy. In my experience with vinyl, you can paint over it but it will not last. Good lookin out though.

Edit: Would be nice if he came up with the smoked headlight and tailight for the 6th gen too. I'd jump all over that but I'll take these for now and try them.

 

If you check ou his site www.bluebatmobile.com he has matching colors for other rides so I'm sure he can do smoke.

ty. Looks like this is the closest to what he can do with Smoke.

 

Cool deal - again anyone that missed it - my MAX pics are on page 3.

 

Maybe its just me because i just woke up and can't see straight. But do they just cover the drl? It looks like they are slightly inward to the hood lines by the fenders. Otherwise it looks great. I'm going to buy them either way.

 

Sorry guys, been very busy. I'll upload the pics onto my Gallery tonight with prices for you .

I honestly like the more aggressive look the eyelids give the headlights, but dont they make them look more like the Altimas headlights??

With the Altima looking more and more like the Max, the last thing I want to do is make my Max look like the Alti.

BTW, how thick are they?? Are they just a cheap thin sticker??

-MO-

 

It's pretty thick Vinyl and matches well to the paint.

I also don't want my Max being mistaken for an Altima but that was happening before already If anything I think it gives the hood a more Z look IMO...

VS Eyelids on JJT MAX

 

just saw this on ebay.

Are these the same ones??? It looks like the non-ebay ones have more of a "corner" eyelid. The ebay ones look more round. I like the corner better myself. The round looks kinda cheap.

-MO-

 

Damn, who's biting? That was quick. Is it one of those cut-it-yourself vinyl stickers?

 

I use a 7 Year High Performance Vinyl for all my Overlays .

Bat™

 

Those aren't mine. But that guy on ebay has taken pics of my Overlays for his auctions ! A few of the guys on our Z and G35 boards brought it to my attention a while back. Really pisses me off. A few of them actually reported him to ebay and had some of my pictures removed, but he still continues to do it.

Looks good Blue Batmobile....if you got some in Spirited Bronze that matches....let me know. Will be wanting some. Looking forward to the set price and color match options. I have seen pics of your work for quite a while, good stuff. Appreciate you taking the time to finally hook us 6th gen Max guys up.....now.....what about the rear tail lights? Anything body color to overlay on them? That would be awsome!!!

 

Thanks, I will def be buying some.

Are they reusable?? Or once they are taken off, they are done for??

-MO-

 

Bluebatmobile is working on side marker overlays, cornerlight overlays and I believe tailight overlays as well. We did some templates for the headlights first and if there is a good response then he will probably produce the rest. Thanks for the comments guys!

I'm willing to guess that at a 7 year vinyl they are what, 2-3 mil correct? If that's the case, MObruin your not going to be able to reuse them once installed and dried. They will simply stretch out if you get them off in one piece. Let me ask you this blue, if and when I decide to take these off, if there is adhesive left behind, how are you removing that? I'd be afraid to use anything too toxic like rapid remover/good off etc. I know at that mil, you should be able to heat them up and remove them cleanly but I'd like to know your experiences with the plastic headlights.

oh and I hate to sound like a know it all. I don't want to come off like that. I was in the vinyl business for 5.5 years and our High Performance vinyl at 2mil was nice to work with. How exactly are you matching colors like the smoke etc? Dye printing? Thermal imprinting?

 

As far as color matching goes, I'll take some samples from my supplier and match them up with the actual cars. It's safe to say I have black, white and silver already . Some of the Maxima colors closely resemble the colors for the Z and G35. I already have those .

wel, I just tried starting a new thread, but it wont let me. Says I dont have access to the page . How many posts do I need to start one?

Bat™

 

Oh well, I wanted to start a new thread, but I'll go ahead post post pics up now, enjoy! I really like the look of these, very aggressive imo. I've started a Maxima Gallery within my website, so all Overlays for the Maxima can be found there .

this might be a stupid question but 6gmxh1 6th Gen Maxima Headlight Eyelid Overlay $20. $25 for dual version.

does that mean 1 headlight for $20, and both for $25?

also, how do we purchase them?

 

Awesome...Ill take a pair in black please. Bluebatmobile let me know how much and where to send the money!

 

I like them.........

 

Sweet Andy - your pics look much better than mine Talk to you soon!

 

Would those look good on my blacked out headlights? Anyone care to photoshop or wager a guess as to how good or bad it may look?

 

I think they'd look just fine on them. I'm going to order them just to see what they look like. I have a feeling they will be hard to match my paint, just because of the way mine is. But you never know.

 

Dual is a black layer underneath to keep light from shining through. If you're car is already black, no need for the dual versions . Some people don't mind light shining through, so I make it an option. Email me to order:

dubbleA@peoplepc.com

 

So do you already have Majestic Blue ready for order?? Or just those three colors you mentioned??

-MO-

 

You have a pic?

Bat™

 

Of my car?? NO. But its the only blue color the 6th gen Maxima comes in, I am pretty sure someone in this post has a pic of it.

Would it be available now in that color??

-MO-

 

If you click my picture in my sig, it has all pictures of a magestic blue paint.
