Hi, i am looking to purchase from you come November for my Birthday. The expression I would want is either that of "Ronnie Del Cooper", or "Becky Wheelin" from Cars 2. Those eyes do not have any lower lids at all. Haven't made up my mind which one I prefer, although leaning towards Ronnie's cute expression. My MINI is horizon blue. Maybe the irises could be a slightly lighter blue/grey.

Just google the characters names to see what I mean. Thanks!

Almost! Thanks for doing this. The Pixar eyes actually dont have eyebrows, and I think I like the innocent expression Ronnie Del Cooper has. Kind of a wide eyed "Huh?" look. I will email you the pic as I get ready to order. Again, thanks!

Hi there Dittin,

My wife has a new 2012 Black JCW Coupe and I'm looking to get eyeshades for her MINI. With that said, could you render a couple of designs?

1. The Evil 2 eyes, but with the dark gray background color as seen on Evil Eye.
2. The Checkered eyes, but with the dark gray background color as seen on Evil Eye.

Thanks!
James

My favorite of the two is the Wicked Girly one.

Not sure what eye color you wanted so it's red for now.

Hey Dittin! I didn't know you were here on NAM! Thanks so much for my eyeshades! They are awesome and I love seeing them in my MINI Countryman! Trying to convince my husband to get one for his M3!

LOVE the happy little "HI" badge contrasting the look in the eyes! GRIN! Use them all the time, because you will get a kick out of people commenting on them and noticing them! I even use mine on cloudy days...

I'd like to order the shades for my new 2013 Highgate. She is Iced Chocolate and I'd love the glam eyes with the iris' to match her blue stripes. Is that possible?

My eyes arrived today! They look absolutely wonderful!! And by wonderful, I mean terrifically-awesome!!!

Now I have to wait for my MINI to arrive so I can get some pictures of them both together!

I'm probably going to need a bunch of your business cards too.

Dittin, one question. How does the color in these hold up? I have a cheap window shade and the color in it is fading badly, as I use them in my window at work. I don't expect it to never fade, just wondering...thanks!

Hey giggles, just from a customer's point of view, my eyeshades' color had held up really well through the Texas summer! I don't think you should have any worries about color fade. These are great quality shades!

Here is my car:

The order is for Black Car, The Rock Expression and hopefully eyes that match my mirrors:




Thanks

Dittin, you're the manufacturer of these? I 'shopped your monacle eyes onto a photo of a Highgate (after doing a crude color match), in my sig!

Can you do some sleepy/bored/indifferent eyes with a monacle for me in the iced chocolate and blue eyes to match the turquoise accent color? TIA
