Thumbs up Going for the mean look...

I got some AUT eyelids and had them painted when the bumper got painted.

Yes I know one of my headlights are fogged up, but what do you guys think? Keep the eyelids or remove them?













Pics without eyelids...

I dont like them. It just doesnt go with the look you have going. I think you should get a CF hood, no scoops!

Can you get a few zoomed-out shots of your car with the eyelids on?

My initial reaction is that they look a little undersized. I always thought that the front edge was supposed to line up with the front edge of your hood...it looks like they're about 1/2" too short.

Not feeling it, doesn't line up or flow well at all. Otherwise ur car looks clean. You should paint the housing instead, never been a fan of partial eye lids.
