man that sucks, this is why I am so hesitant to do the eyebrow mod or the angel eye mod.

Hope you figure something out

aye so your whole eye brow part you detached from your head lights right and it broke in half? why dont you try sanding down the broken part so when you put it together it's more even. then epoxy it.

I can get it back together I think then putty and paint to hide the cracks but the top of the headlight is all chewed up from removal. And on top of that the water shorted out the LEDs for the eyebrow so I gotta deal with that too.

Actually he did the initial install for me but the LEDs he used kept burning out. My headlights were a problem from the start. He gave me a light strip I'm gonna try to put in there rather then those boards. I might ask him for some more help. I wanna get these fixed once and for all. I just got my umnitza body kit all painted and put on. Just need to do my exhaust and fix these eye sore headlights

Thank you. Yes I'm going to take my time n do this right. If not I'm going to buy a light

If anyone has a broken one I can use for parts let me know. Thanks everyone. Who knows maybe this will turn out good. Black eyebrows might look good. Maybe I'll do some red LEDs to match my evebrows.

I had water in my left eyebrow from doing the orion mod. I still haven't fixed it and don't know the best approach.

I would open it up and try to dry it with a blow dryer or heat gun.
