Ran into this ad in Drift Tengoku. I think these eye lids make zenki look more aggressive.

Nice.....been rockin the same for about two years.

Have fun replacing the corner light bulb because it is impossible to remove the assembly without breaking the eyelids. Which is why I've been rockin a burnt out bulb for over a year.

Nah...I also used double-sided tape. It's the red (tape backing) 3M type. I guess I can always take them off.

Nope. I put my first set on with the 3m double-sided with the green backing. Lasted 6 months and they both flew off on the f-in highway.

Second set, i sanded the back, cleaned it with alcohol, and used the 3m with the red backing. I guess is did too great of a job because it bonded like cement.

I tried peeling it off and the phucker cracked in the corner.

Should've used fishing lines and I guess...FLOSS it off.

But seriously...fishing line works. Even better if the eyelid is first heated. Maybe leave it in the sun for a few hours then do it. Then remove the residue with Goo Gone.

Here's a good view of the headlights with the cf eyelids at night. I think the colors in the picture is more accurate to what they actually look like in person.

Personally I think the Zenki lights look like a Toyota Camry, but I do like the eyelids.

What is this disgrace? Why would you ever compare in any way a 240 to a camry or a probe. 240s are on a whole different level.

The chuki s13 looks like a probe, never liked it. the zenki s13 is alright. The zenki s14 does looks like a camry, it just looks too sedan-ish, the kouki is far more sexy lol
