paint code is on your car and i own a graphics shop and was thinkin of makin some lol but vinyl is thin and could make it look rigged so i havent done it yet maby ill do some today and show u some pics. it would have to be a piece of vinyl a bit larger then the headlight and then u would place the bottom line of it where u wanted them to cover and then stretch the vinyl over the rest, also b/c its thin it would shine light through unless u got some thicker stuff.i would almost say it would be easyer for you to take on a fiberglassing project and make a template outa some thick carbboard paper of the eyelid and then fibergalss u one its not as hard as you think if you never delt with fiberglass but its a good start to DIY

Your car color code is under the hood.... I wanna say right behind your TB or somewhere near the firewall. There should be a metal plate with some data on there... It says right on it

please dont do that... ebay used to sell the vinyl eyelids for the 04-06 lancers and they look really stupid. also i'm sure the vinyl would eventually fade colors and look really off from the car.
