Where is the best place to get them online... here in the U.S.?


I'm gonna bite the bullet and have the decks repainted, including the nose section. I'll have them spray the kidney blackouts to color match, and if I can get them, the eyelids too.

Must be wide grill style for a 540.


Anyone know a good vendor?

and.. lol that's not even for the right car.. but maybe try emailing him and seeing if they're right for your car? meantime i will rack my brain and see if i can remember my seller's username .. i bought it through a friend's account so i don't have him in my seller history

here's a couple close-ups of em.. of course this is narrow grill tho

This is mine. Of course it is not the E34 eyelids, I mod the one for the 88 VW jetta.

Yours look nice.... post up if you find them.

The ebay link you posted says E34, but they showed pictures of about 4 different models of cars... none of which were an E34.

I suppose a person could take eyelids for a narrow grill and trim them to fit a wide grill if need be.

You used eyelids for an 88 Jetta? How much modification did it take to fit them?

Yes, I couldn't find the ones for e34, so I order a jetta one and cut it to length and mod the ends to fit around the corner lights

Nice angel eyes. Where did you get those from and do they mount on the outside of the headlights???

They are made by me, and yes they are mounted on the outside.

found some on ebay... I'll have to trim them to fit the wide nose, but that shouldn't be too hard.
