Don't know if anybody is interested but I was looking on Tfbdesigns.com and noticed they had eyelids for the GD Fits but not for the GE8.

I was curious to give the Fit front end a little more of an aggressive look so I thought this was a good option. I shot off an email to Tim at TFB and he was nice enough to respond quickly. This is what he had to say....
We are hoping to have eyelids for the GE8 soon. We just need to make a pattern from a GE8 and get some pictures with the eyelids installed. Please check our website again later. Thanks

I'm hoping they come out soon. I think it would be a nice little touch for the GE8.
Please support if interested.

you'd want it to match the hood color

People need to look up "boser blick hood" and learn how this is done right.
To each his own- I prefer the sharp edges to the rounded ones in the pics above. The eyelids work great for me and stop me from blinding others with my HID.

I agree with blassty, the eyelids usually look best the same color as the hood.
As for vinyl eyelids go, they are the only type of eyelids I run on my cars. The vinyl eyelids sit flush on the headlights. Plastic eyelids attach with 3M tape and stick up off of the headlights, debri can get trapped under. Plus if you try to remove 3m tape from your headlight later it probably will not come off nicely.
The vinyl eyelids can be removed later if you want to change the look. The adhesive is car friendly and you do not have to get them painted. Paint can chip and is expensive. This part of the car is subject to rocks chips, etc. We offer quality eyelids for a fraction of the cost.

Most boser hoods cut across the headlights at a similar angle as the eyelids, like this one I have for my Jetta.

We can probably find a vinyl that matches blue sensation pearl. We would need to compare some color charts to get the best match. I see you are in CA, are you ever near Morgan Hill / San Jose area?

That would be great, it will not take long to find a color match. I will also bring all the color charts to the next Fit meet to find matches for the colors we do not offer.

Can I get a quote on some white ones for the GE8 shipped to 77084 or 75799, which ever one is cheapest.
