Robert found cheaper ones in Japan for $85.00.... Those are the cheapest. You can get other better brands I guess for more... I am gonna order as soon as I can get $85.00.

His name here on the forums is... {-_-}

His name is Robert... PM him and ask if he's willing to go out and get you a pair... I bought my black housing headlights from him.

Cool

Thanks for the pic juan. What color is your car? I'm just wondering how those eyebrows would look on my ride (01 Beige metallic with ivory leather) & if there is a "bronze" tint to them to compliment the car?

you have to have some stuff done to your car to pull off eyebrows, they look odd on stock/lightly modified cars

I wasen't planning to do too much to the car, I asked about a sunroof wind deflector (most opinions were not positive) & I will be adding a classy (and high quality) bronze tint to the car within the next month. I pretty much leave the car stock as it is still under factory warrenty with a Lexus extended till 180,000kms (112,000 miles). I've also asked a bit of a trick question about a stb (but with the factory AVS suspension) but I'm not sure if anyone knows for sure if I can do it without any major mods to the hood (or what types I have to choose from). Any suggestions HoeBag?

I agree with HB, a stock car wouldn't look great with eyebrows... Need a little something on there, maybe rims/drop. But you can try, I haven't seen any stock cars with eyebrows.

My car is beige... But I am getting a paintjob soon, probably some kind of metallic silver... So I will get my eyelids painted the same color... I went ahead and ordered them today, the 85 came outta nowhere.

To be honest. Alot of the cars you see in Japan, arent really what they seem.. If are having trouble finding the eyebrows, then I know that alot of guys here buy a decal sheet that matches thier color, and cut the eyebrows to fit... The thinking behind this is, that before you pay out for a set. You can actually see what it looks like first.. Alot of the guys I have talked to, have done this, and did such a good job, that they decided against buying the eyebrow, and just stayed with the decal sheet.. Im not sure about the states. But all of our auto shops sell a very hard wearing, non fading sheet that is used on more cars than I can remember here... Even up close, if the job is done right, then I cant notice the difference?
