I think it looks better without those eyelids. Do you have any pics of the back end ?

IMO much better, but then again I like the current face too. I know a lot people have issues with the current headlights, this is a definitely a step in the right direction.

Man, those are some fat stock tires they have on that 7.

to be honest, my issues with the 7 do not really involve the front, so I'm interested to see the rear!

I first saw it today in the Swedish “Auto motor & sport”. Then I did a search on Internet and found the pictures on a Norwegian site. Search for bmw 7 facelift in goggle and you shall find. Here is another.
