What are the benefits from the LSK eyebrows compared to just painting the headlight..?

Do they look more "flush" so to speak.. I'm just thinking why spend the 45 if I have all the materials and it will look just as good..
 
Yup, it runs with the body lines to give the hood an extended 'brow'.

IMO painting it looks kind of tacky...

Though brows on the LS I am not a fan of anyways
 
yea.. I'm on the fence about them.. I have to wet sand the lights down and clear them so I though to add primer and color in there isn't too involved..

Do they cut off the look of the angel eyes?

With them CLEAR again, I'm sure I will like that look more.. Time will tell I guess..
 
LSK brows, painting would not give you the height you get with the real thing. I think they look sick on hddave's ls. It's a different look, if you're going for classy/luxurious then no, you going to the sporty/mean/agreesive look then yes.


I ordered some last week from lsk. We'll see how they look with the angel eyes
 
Alax, I thought you already had some? I thought I remember a photo with you setting them on there just to see.
 
I did, still have them. It was the ones that were black that i put on for a pew minutes to snap pics then I got them painted along with the lse bumper and lse wing. When I was going to put them on, I was right infront of the car when I saw a piece of tape got on the edge of one and I just pulled it off. It took off a strip of paint :mad:, prob wasn't primed, I think they just got it and painted it without prep work, it was free though so I can't complain. I bought some touch up paint to fix it and when I used it, it made the paint on the eye lids get wrinkly and lift up and bubble, like if it burned it off :confused:. That was when I installed the lse bumper, I just let those and decided to buy new ones last week and get them painted by a diff shop where I'll be color matching all my grilles and the rear surround
 
I had them but didnt like them, they look awesome at first but I didnt paint mine and should have used a better glue

Alax, you should really put the eyelids on the headlights before painting. I would worry about the paint cracking otherwise. Maybe I'm just being too careful, but that's what I did.

If I were to do it again, I would probably try to fiberglass my own set. The eyelids tend to ripple a little.

Yeah, I might have to install then have them painted because when I got them back, they were all curved/rolled up, I guess from painting :confused:. Fiberglass would be a good option
