Finally decided to find a place to get them.
They come in:

Gloss white
Gloss black
Gloss silver
Transparent dark smoke
Metallic dark blue
Metallic dark grey
Rally red

They are not OEM colored though.

Can't wait to get mine though. I got them in gloss black!

I will likely be taking them to someone to do the installation for me.
Will post pictures though when I get them done!

You can do the installation of the eyelids yourself. You can grab some double sided tape (3M) from home depot for $5. I got the tape that holds 20lbs for every inch applied. It'll only take a few minutes (mainly because you're centering them until you're content).

Oh look at that. The side marker tint is an interesting idea. :D

I think Toyota should have designed the headlights like that. Looks so much better IMO. Glad I did it a while ago lol.

Ooh, I want. Though I'm almost tempted to just wait for fibreglass ones.

Thanks for the lead.
Ordered, recv'd within days... easily installed.
They do complement the car the way it should have been I find.

Hey Fybur...

Just in case you're not familiar with film application...
Note that eyelids instructions do not detail the spray solution:
- some slip needed to allow positionning
- not to much as to not interfere with glue curing

I have always used Gila's guidelines http://www.gilafilms.com/en/Film-FAQ.aspx
- cheap indoor plant sprayer
- quarter of a teaspoon of no tears baby shampoo (without conditioner) to one quart water, shake up, allow the bubbles to settle, then use.
(distilled water is even better as it offer the best drying clarity)

I ordered them and they came quickly (despite ordering them on the 4th of July). I had them on for a couple of days but later took them off because the color difference between the shade of greyhttp://www.yarisworld.com/forums/album.php?albumid=1012&pictureid=5870.

If I did I lost them when I changed phones. From further away the color difference was not noticeable, unless you focused on it for a while. But within 3-5 feet the difference was noticeable and to me it was displeasing.
The product is well made and they even warn that its not an OEM match but it just bothered me too much.

If my car hadn't been black, white, or red I think the color difference would of bothered me too honestly.
The other colors are really different from the OEM color.
