Eyelids and blacked-out tailights on an S14 - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

S13Grl · 11-26-2001, 10:02 AM

I already promised to put these pictures up, and they're pictures of the front and back of my boyfriend's (S14Guy) car. We had a discussion on eyelids and blacked out tailights.

Anyway, here are the pictures:

(And here's the rest of my album, some interesting funny car and nice car pics if you wanna look <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=';)'> Irena's Album )

that looks pretty #### tight!

*DSC* · 11-26-2001, 10:44 AM

Is that a sentra behind you, looks pretty cool <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>
I remember you saying he made the eyelids himself, how'd he stick them on their? Also, how did he do the back? Other than makeing it darker, did he do anything else cauz the back looks different. What kind of exhaust is that? Do I see an innercooler? Am I rambleing? hehe

Heh, I meant actually behind you in your gallery. I guess thats the sentra you were just talking about huh? The silver one?

S13Grl · 11-26-2001, 11:22 AM

haha! no, I need to take that retarded-ass picture off. Anyway, that is not his Sentra, that's a Chevy Cavalier. <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>

vancouvers14 · 11-26-2001, 11:23 AM

what are the eyelids made of and how are they stuck on?  just glued to the top of the headlights?

S13Grl · 11-26-2001, 11:29 AM

The eyelids are actually regular vinyl that was cut evenly with the hood line, I believe.

*DSC* · 11-26-2001, 11:30 AM

My monitor does suck pretty bad, I thought that was a sentra tho. Only cavalier i konw of that looks anything like that is like the 89's. *shrugs* oh well.

11-26-2001, 11:38 AM

hey nice looking car, if u could find the 97-98 side skirts it would look really nice!

Just because you got them doesn't mean everyone should, meanie!!!!!!!!! <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/mad.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':angry:'>

vancouvers14 · 11-26-2001, 01:02 PM

i personally wouldnt get the side skirt.  i don't think they fit the car.  ive never been a fan of non-flat ground effects.

*Grant* · 11-26-2001, 05:33 PM

on second thought, maybe i shouldnt get eyelids, looks like an S13 now.

BlankFlip · 11-26-2001, 06:15 PM

s13grl or s14guy, can u elaborate on how the eyelids were made?

S13Grl · 11-26-2001, 07:48 PM

How does it look like an S13? And what's wrong with S13s?

*DSC* · 11-26-2001, 08:07 PM

I think grant was saying it looked a bit more like the silvia s13 cauz its a little smaller n stuff.

my240likenoother · 11-26-2001, 08:21 PM

hey S13Grl how come ther r no pix of your car?<img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/confused.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='???'>?? <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=';)'>

11-26-2001, 09:42 PM

did someone say se-r?
*dreams*

thats nice how he did his lights i like his wheels!

so he cant take the rear lights off cause its painted on correct irena?

*Grant* · 11-27-2001, 12:40 AM

I dunno, it looks like the eyelids block out quite a bit of light. Nothings wrong with S13's.

dmaestro · 11-27-2001, 12:55 AM

Whatever floats your boat.  Eyelids are about as cool as Altezza tail-lights IMHO. :o

i knew somebody w/out eyelids was gonna say something like that, just please don't nebody elaborate on it n be all stupid n start a stupid f*ckin' rice discussion again cuz those r just annoying.

S13Grl · 11-27-2001, 08:39 AM

Camppain: I guess he could remove it with paint remover...

My240likenoother: I don't have my S13 anymore, no point of putting pictures up...

Flippy: Thanks...

*nismo270r* · 11-27-2001, 08:39 AM

Actually I used to have eyelids on my car awhile back. I made them myself out of 7yr vinyl. The same stuff used for a lot of decals. I just got two sheets...used the straight side of one to place where I wanted it on the light...stuck it on, smoothed it out, and cut it with a razor underneath the hood so you couldn't see it. They looked decent and the lights looked pretty badass at night too. My front lip now matches the rest of my car and I took ALL stickers off...I think my car looks completely different now...which is a good thing I guess. Anyways...here's the pics:

nismo270r, nice car <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'> . would u happen to have ne pics to post of before u changed it n all?

vancouvers14 · 11-27-2001, 11:28 AM

looks like i've found my next weekend project...  where does one buy sheets of vinyl?

S13Grl · 11-27-2001, 11:36 AM

I think you can get them at graphics shops and small print places... not sure though.

*Grant* · 11-27-2001, 01:16 PM

I just want to know if it blocks out a lot of light, I don't want to do it, if it screws up my ability to see at night.

*Grant* · 11-27-2001, 01:19 PM

S13Grl · 11-27-2001, 02:05 PM

It doesn't block out at night.

S13Grl · 11-27-2001, 05:36 PM

I meant the ones my boyfriend has.
