Default Opinions on eyelids wanted (pic attached)

I was browsing the internet today and came across these eyelids. I am not sure if I like them or not. Any opinions?

I'm not too fond of them, but that's just me.

Well, they look good on this car...It all depends on all the other "accessories" you've got on I suppose.

They look okay, I think they are different, but I don't know if they are for me as well. Of course I would have them painted DB to match my car. It would be better to see it in person. PIctures never tell the true story. I just really don't like the orange strip. And sorry Henry, I am not a fan of the "missing" strip either, although it does look good from a distance. Trust me, you are not going to hurt my feelings if you say you hate the eyelids. I am more performance minded anyway.

They are from EVO-r, if I remember right. I think they are pretty lame, but do what you want.

They look better in person. I saw them on a car at our last meet and I really liked them.

Hey, I was just testing the

"Trust me, you are not going to hurt my feelings if you say you hate the eyelids."

part of your statement.

Hey Yobri,
Isn't the Bay Area all about being unique? But, I would rather be unique in the sense of having a 350Z that out performs a 911 Turbo for less than half the cost. Saving all my pennies for the JWT TT kit, when it finally comes out... Until then, bring on the bolt-ons!

I was referring to the aesthetical sense of unique... now I'm all for being unique, even if your preference is the "rainbow" kind of unique... I mean, it is fairly appropriate for the SF Bay Area

I wanna be 10-sec (1/4mi) unique, but that is fairly unlikely to happen though

With enough CA$H...anything is possible. Even a 10-sec Z. But if that is all you wanted, you can do it fairly cheap with old school muscle.

This remids me of one of my favorite sayings....

Don't do much for me personally. I like the lines better without the additional "hump."

Reminds me of a famous saying...

"You are not a beautiful or unique snowflake"

Name the movie.
