Fiberglass Eyelids

they have professional quality 3M already applied to the back
Mine came with no tape... and I remember seeing someone else w/o tape. Was there any clarification from TopShop as to why that was? Could have just been that batch that slipped by... or the later eyelids didn't come with the tape. :shrug:

Either way... a variety of tape can be found at automotive stores, I think even Home Depot.
 
they must have just overlooked doing it prior to them being shipped. They should come with tape. Or as least I believe the majority of them shipped with tape attached.
 
Mine came without tape as well. I'm kinda glad since most people said the included tape propped them up to high. I just hope the tape I have is strong enough :laugh:
 
Do we need to send out some double sided tape for anyone?
Thanks
Also does anyone want to order some of these eyelids?
Thanks

I will be sending another group order tomorrow night or Thursday morning...

if you want a set, please send your payment today or tomorrow.
 
not yet.... I was waiting on some more payments as I normally send bulk orders and this one is the worst as far as participation yet.

Hopefully the dude above will send his payment tonight so I can tell Topshop to ship tomorrow.

thanks for being patient...
 
Installed mine last night. I think the Duplicolor matched pretty darn good.

- wipe down with isopropyl alcohol
- spray with light gray primer
- spray 4 light color coats with Duplicolor rattle can, 1 min between each coat
