Default new product - eyelids -pontiac G5 /cobalt

alright folks. this is a result of my own research ...
i surf the web often looking for different things for my G5 often just to kill time
when i happen to run into eyelids i was like hmm maybe not my thing. but holy crap $40 counting shipping? and sometimes you gotta buy 2 sets to get a soild color? .. face it we are all on a budget with our cars. so the past 3 days i been working on my own eyelids.

im still working on the final price. $30 is the max price these will cost. it may be lower. and i may infact do this as a group by that if 5 people. thats right 5 people order they will only be $25 each ....
either way the current promo on skdecals.ca is $5 off orders over $15 so even if they are listed at $30 your getting them for $25. (till end of july)

i read some how tos. and i put mine on wet (soap and water) i didnt like how hard it was putting them on dry . useing dish soap and water adn a credit card and my finger worked so easy.

what im asking is. for someone to make me a how to install my eyelids that ill be selling. useing soap and water. as a thank you im willing to give $5 off your next order or refund $5 from your last order.

how much demand is there for these eyelids?
here is some pics i did i just installed on my car.

black preview added to product link above

as you can see it follows the body lines of the car nicely. like i said above not really my style but i needed to stick them on my car to take pics ... they mite be growing on me..

I may install them and if I like, I'll keep. Otherwise, I'll tear them off and throw away. BUT not for $40.

I think these are something you have to see on YOUR car in person before actually deciding.

i hated the idea of them at first. im kinda likin them on my car now that i sit back and look at it. still not sure if ill keep them on it

most common colors used for this will be for red ,maroon , black ,white and silver cars im sure.

but like most things some will like some will hate. and depends on the car maybe as well.
how ever people have paid $40 for them. and i agree thats too high. thats why my price will be $30 at most. i havnt had time to look around at what other people are selling them for. and im leaning more towords just selling sets for $25

but id still need somone to make me a how too with pics.

For $25 bucks, I would be willing to buy them and see if I like them. If I end up not liking them, it's not that bad of a loss of money.

I have the Nitrous Blue color though, so not sure how well your blue will match my car - but I would be willing to try it.

no it wont, I had left enough slack for it to shrink and it looks painted now and fits snug, from the heat lol.

maybe 5 years from now, but that goes with all vinyl, by then I will have new rims.

Living has nothing to do with it, I know more about paint then most painters, But I dont paint for a living
