    Help Mounting Eyelids

    I got a set of the abs eyelids and can't for the life of me figure out how to mount them. I know there are people here with them, a little help please?

            1. Take grills off of car
            2. Check the size of the screws that will hold the eyebrows on.
            3. Find a drill bit a hair smaller then the screws.
            4. Set the eyebrows onto of the grills.
            5. Drill holes through both eyebrow and grill (3 or 4 would be fine in each side)
            6. Screw eyebrows to grills
            7. Put grills back in the car
            8. If they came with a foam strip, install it under the hood above the eyebrows that you just put on.

                I used double-face tape. 3M though. None of that cheapo crap.

                Held on for it's dear life.

                  I was going to say, use double stick tape. 3M makes a thing foam tape made for outdoor use. Stuff is stickier then shit. Make sure to clean the grills and eyebrows good with alcohol so the tape will stick.
