6th gen Eyelid interest...
I need to know who would be in serious interest to get eyelids for the 6th gen made. He needs a test car in San Diego to get these made. If we have enough interest we can get it done. Heres a link to his site for a few examples of what hes capable of. Thanks, now lets get this going.

that actually looks REALLY nice. Now would this be the hood or eyelids. It could be something like the VW's with the Booser Hoods. Looks really nice though, I'd be in.

Talked with the eyelid designer, Andy, tonight and he is PUMPED about the responses from this thread. He LOVED the look of the photoshop that I sent to him and we are meeting on Sunday to go over designs. He thinks he can really make the Max look pretty aggressive much like the pic above and is definitely hoping to get something going for us soon. We will probably be using my Max as the test car. I will keep you guys posted!

: Sweet, I knew I could count on you! I cant wait. Do you think you can see if there are any other projects he would like to do with the Max like he did with the 350?

Well, upon closer inspection, I'm not really sure that type of overlay would look good on our cars... 
Seriously though, look at it closely and you'll see... the photoshop looks KILLER, but that's because it extends the hood out to cover the headlights. With any type of overlay like the ones on that site, there's gotta be a gap between the hood and the lamp, there's just no way around it, and what I'm worried about is that it's just gonna look like what is is... a sticker on top of your headlamp.
But hopefully I'm wrong and it's gonna look hot... I'm all for it if it does.
Now what I wouldn't mind having is one of those overlays like he has for the G35 ( http://photobucket.com/albums/y42/Bl...pe%20Overlays/ )... use one of those instead of going through the mess of tinting your headlamps, and the car looks like SEX.

Good idea HZ!
Blaxima - I will make sure we go over a lot of different designs. I'm not too hip on just a sticker - I would much rather have a plastic overlay of some sort to match the hood. We'll see what he has planned on Sunday!

after cleaning my car tonight (finally) and even having the hood buffed while on vacation, I see the eyelids as something else to get chipped. I would only do it if it was made out of aluminum or carbon fiber and painted - which would chip.
photochop experts, you should include the lines breaking between the hood and proposed eyelids. That looks really good as though it was a one piece hood. May get a different reaction seeing it as clip on separate peices.

Has anyone played Need for Speed Underground 2? Well, although this does not help getting these eyelids made, one of the mods on the 350z (very similiar headlights as our max) are eyelids that look like the ones photoshoped by ohthatshot.
