i think i like that version better than the full top. the thing that i think would make them look a bit better is if they filled the gap between the headlights and the hood. im sure your not looking for critiquing but thought id share

It definitely adds to a custom-look... I see a little extra detailing to do when cleaning up after a wax. I'd like to see some more shots of it. This definitely is a good look - not a bad look.

I don't suppose it interferes with the headlight beam? Definitely enjoy the attention!

Why not go for a different look altogether, use only one.

I don't care for how they aren't the full width of the lens. But hey, it beats $125 from TVT:

CTD Germany Eyebrows

you really don't notice that while they are going down the road, only when up close...the photo makes it stand out more...in person, it's really not a big deal...

I look at them as trying to fill out the hood line. I think they would look a littl better if they were thinner on the inside to match the line where the hood sits when closed. (By the way, the hood is not closed all the way. That is why there is such a gap.) I was playing with them to move them up close to the hood and toward the center to line up the outside corner with the hood lines. I does kind of give the headlights a 'mean' squint. I'll move it outside and take a couple more pics and see what it looks like.

I do believe they need rotating 180 degrees to fit the hood and grill lines better. They do look to be on the correct headlight... Squirrel Crusher

They add good protection to the top of the lens from the sun.

That looks better. Do they not have a lip to wrap around the rear of the lens like CTD's?

Nope. They are contoured, painted aluminum.
