CarLashes - latest “must-have” kitsch car accessory

LONDON - Car lovers, who wish to jazz up their vehicles, can now do so with the many accessories coming up, including CarLashes, which can be fixed above the headlights.

CarLashes are the latest “must-have” kitsch car accessory, and they are already a hit among women drivers in the US and are rapidly gaining popularity in Britain.

The accessories are fixed above the headlights with the tape designed not to damage the paintwork when removed.

And for those who feel that attaching a set of plain eyelashes to their car is not kitsch enough, the firm who invented the accessory also sells strips of “crystal eyeliner” to stick along the top.

The US firm which launched CarLashes in January, Turbo Style Products, invites customers to “dress up your headlights with a touch of fashion and a twinkle of crystal!”

Fans of the accessory have created a Facebook group to share pictures of their cars. Around 3,000 people have become fans of the product on the social networking site.

“I do eyelash extensions, so eyelashes on my car are the perfect advert for my business,” the Telegraph quoted one user as writing.

Carlashes cost around 16 pounds and the crystal eyeliner strips cost around 13 pounds.

The 10 kitschest car accessories are:

1) CarLashes - 16 pounds

2) Fluffy dice - 5 pounds

3) Crystal handbag hook - 19 pounds
