New Miata Owner/01 Eyelid needed

[Saltatrix]

Hello...

I just bought an 01 miata last Tuesday. I woke up this morning and part of one of the eyelids is broken off. It's not REALLY bad, but for me I cannot help the need to replace it asap. LOL, it's bugging me that it's not there and I just got the car.

This is the eyelid cover I am looking for:

Here are a few other quick pics of the car:

If anyone has one for sale or knows a good place for me to find an eyelid like that let me know.

I'll need to also try and get some paint for it if possible, the paint code is 23C... any suggestions

BTW it's supercharged and my first modified engine car. I'm so loving the twisty rodes and the ability to handle. Such a fun car. This summer I will try autoX.

Thanks for the help.

Hello, and welcome aboard. Nice car!

...I can't really help with the eyelid. Good luck.

Welcome.

I believe those are the Mazda covers.. they look just like them. you can go to your local dealer and order a new set already painted from them. MSRP $120 They are actually called 'headlight bezels'

yeah, I hear ya. eBay is good sometimes for finding OEM stuff like that.

So, what supercharger does it have?

LOL if you like it they sale them at Target dear. I think they might come in white, but we can put dye in it to match your pink nail polish? (poke)

Muuuuuuuuuuuuuuuah, smooches!

BTW it has a whipple supercharger...

So, about that pink purse? What cha think?

I like the look of the bezels. Have them on my car, although it is more subtle with the titanium color. How do they attach?

I'm not sure. They were put on by the prior owner.

PERVERT... I'll try and take some pictures, but next time I'll charge. (hah)

I believe those bezels mount with double sided tape.

Anybody seen pics of these on a black NB? I've been considering getting some, but I want to see them first.

My car was the first I've seen with them. Maybe have someone photoshop either my car and make mine black or something to give you an idea.

Come to think of it, I have never seen the bezels on a black Miata. I have a photo here in front of me of 142 Miatas at Miatas at the Biltmore. I see headlight bezels on yellow, gray, and blue cars, but none on black, red, silver, green, or white cars.
