Nice wheels but those eyelids are very much illegal. Hope you don't use your car at night. They cover half the lights beam.

Micro · 09-06-2010, 10:43 PM

yea they are illegal... so is my exhaust and intake etc... i drive at night all the time... there is no noticeable difference at all.... the road in front of me is still lit up great and the high beams still work... no downside in my opinion

thanks for your concern though lol

toy_toronto · 09-06-2010, 10:45 PM

thanks -toy

Doesn't Cali do vehicle state inspections?

Nope, we have smog every other year after your car is 5 years old. Strictly speaking, no modifications to intake and exhaust are allowed. Unless those modifications are certified by CARB (they get an EO [Executive Order] - a sticker which makes them legal). But there are no other technical inspections.

If you mod your car badly and you want to make it street legal, you could go to a smog ref and they would do a full inspection and decide. I was thinking about looking into it, but gave up on the idea. I'm thinking about getting a different car instead of dealing with the hassle (nice excuse, huh?)

sorry it took me so long to reply... well the eyelids were an experiment of mine trying different shapes and coverage areas to find the balance of looking great and not affecting the headlights performance.

i wont go into detail on measurements and everything (unless you want it) but basically they are simply 4 coats of paint... the first coat needs to be white (for a good reflective surface for the light to bounce off of back into the reflectors) then three coats of your average flat black paint... or whatever color you are going for

thanks for the compliment toy

Vitz Rs Modellista · 09-13-2010, 05:23 AM

My 2010 JDM Vitz RS Modellista with

- Volk Racing RE30 By Rays Engineering
Front wheels: 16" x 7" ET 45 with 2010 Yokohama Earth-1 Tyre (205/45 ZR 16)
Rear wheels: 16" x 7" ET 33 with 2010 Yokohama Earth-1 Tyre (205/45 ZR 16)

I know that some will say "the car needs to be lowered" but I am not sure I want to compromise my usability of carrying 4 people around Bangkok with a lot of pot holes and horrible road surface.

Further modification are posted in my introduction thread listed below
