Well obviously you haven't been keeping up with the aftermarket industry. This is a very commonly produced part for all types of Luxury vehicles. If you take a close look at all the BMW's, IS and VIP cars at the show, most of them have eyebrows installed.

I understand that you may not think that the SC doesn't look good with them but that's doesn't mean that they only belong on Hondas.

VJ RC51 - Comments were pretty harsh man. I am sorry but when you are limited to SPONSORED / FREE Products for building a COMPLETE car theres only so much that you can do to make the car look the exact way that you want it. PHASE TWO is still in the works. We are re-building the car Slower than dirt? I didn't know that your TINT/KN FILTER puts that many ponies on your car. My forced induction is on the way also...be sure to pick up the article at a newstand near you bro.

I think you have made your point the first time you posted. No need to post up 50 million times with variations of the same comment.

VJ, you were warned by a moderator already once in this thread (and another one today) that you've already made your thoughts known. There is no reason to continue posting in this thead and your additional commentary above can be counted as +2 on the strike towards a ban from ClubLexus.

If you have any questions, PM OLT or me.


Everybody else please back on topic, let's end responding VJ's ongoing commentary.

Default Nah

Back to the headlight brows....
I'm not feeling it at all. The headlights already have nice lines and these just make it look busy and cluttered. That being said, I like the front bumper even less for the same reasons.

Fair enough guys. We are just posting pics for members to view the product line and maybe if they were thinking about getting the brows or not its always good to see a picture of anything in general before one makes a decision to buy something or not.

We are taking that most people dont really feel the eyebrows which is fine, so please only post positive comments so that others may change their minds. Thanks again guys. TUNE ON!

They might look better with a different color. Like Black where you can't see the gaps of the body.

umm no. That'll make it look unpainted and rather.. cheap.

It looks the fine the way it is.

it looks good, BUT, IF i had to put those on, i'd get them where the eyelids stop right at the line where the hood meets the fender. it will look better that way, IMO.

Kudos for bringing more products to the SC crowd

Sorry let me clarify. It would look better on a Black colored SC with black colored eyelids. That way you don't see any of the gaps.

I dont know man, it looks too weird if its cut off like that...
But yeah I think eyelids would look really nice on a black SC

I have eyelids on my Bimmer and I think they look great on cars with more "edgy" appearance.

In a way, the shape of SC has made it hard to allow these eyelids look natural.

It's a good mod. But I think this mod tends to work a lot better on other cars than the SC.
