Default Eyeliner

I notice that Juntw makes a carbon fiber "eyeliner." I have also found a vinyl sticker-like eye liner on a google search.

I dont want carbon fiber nor do I want a stick-on eyeliner. Does anyone know if there is a company out there that makes a fiberglass (or whatever) eyeliner that comes ready to paint to match the color of my vehicle?

oooo.that's hot.

It's like that..yes but yours is more of a side eyeliner (eyelid/whatever...the website called it eyeliner), this one is more of a top eyelid. Really just because of the different headlight shape between your Z and the IS.
I just dont want this in carbon fiber so if anyone knows if this is made in a different material (i dont know much but I assume you cant paint carbon fiber, and even if so then what's the point of spending $ on the carbon fiber) please post.

whoever told you you cant paint carbon fiber they are full of lies. you can most definitely paint carbon fiber. also...i don't think too many companies make them for our cars...only a handfull of that.

Well i suppose you could technically paint carbon fiber but I see no point in paying extra for the carbon fiber IF there's that "handful of companies" that make them like 'chrIS250" mentioned.

So what are these companies?

Anyone have anything to say about the vinyl? Sounds like it'd be cheap looking - a sticker.

That looks interesting, although perhaps a little over-the-top. However, I keep staring at it because I wonder how it will look with my CF hood. : )

eyeliner? use cover girl or maybelline.

carbon fiber is too stiff and can irritate sensitive skin
