it'd be a little useful if you gave us a link to what you're talking about?

I went to auto zone and bought a roll of the vinyl racing stripes. I made a template with paper and transferred it onto cardboard. Then I cut out my own eyebrows. I think they look pretty cool. If you can't find racing stripes to match your car go to a local sign shop and ask them if the have a thick vinyl to match the color you want. If you go too thin the light shines through and it looks crappy. You can kinda see mine on my profile pic. I still have the template, I could always cut you some and send them to you if you send me $$ for the vinyl. Just an idea.

For eyelids, you can get some Bluebatmobile's eyelids. He's a great seller! Here's a link to his website if you wanna see what kind of overlays he offers...

Here's a sample of how some of his eyelids look, these are the ones he has on his website...

tch1b Headlight Lid $18. $23 for dual version(black layer underneath so light doesnt pass through the overlay at night) Add $3 for Carbon Fiber Finish.
Quoted from Bluebat's website for the TCH1B eyelids.

Randode's 15 + 3 for s/h I think. It doesn't transmit light, just like bat's. Both are the same probably. Pretty easy to put on, just takes patience with all those stupid air bubbles!

every once in a while, there's a seller on ebay that will put up a set of poly eyelids. i bought em a while back, and they're completly paintable to get a 100% color match

I bought some stupid overlays off ebay. They looked good, but when I got them the color was off a bit. I emailed the manufacturer and he told me that I couldn't return them b/c I opened the package. BS!!! Take your time and buy from a reputable seller. Worst $20 ever spent

Flint Mica is going to be near impossible to match with adhesive vinyl. If you want a real close match, you'll need to get some poly 'lids and have them painted.
