***Custom Painted Eyebrow*** Pics Inside.
#1
Got a broken set of headlights. Decided to cut out the eyebrow portion of the headlight. The whole thing. Did it quick just to see how hard it would be. If I were to do this, I'd take my time gutting it out. Took it out and painted it black, red, white. I got some Frosted glass spray paint and frosted the eyebrow lens too.
I planned on inserting LED strip/ribbon behind the eyebrows to make them brighter. I will be messing around with these headlights for a while. For my 2nd set of headlights (Demon eyes) I was going to heavily mod it with Orion V2 color changing, painted eyebrows and insert some LED behind the eyebrow to make them brighter. But I sold it.
Maybe I'll eventually do this mod. But for now, just experimenting.
Gutted out the eyebrow section
Frosted the eyebrow portion
Would look good on a Alpine White E60

Dont listen to everyone guys, these are the poeple that complain but then jump on the band wagon to get it done, just like when john figured out hid angels and reverse lights and eugene doing the eyebrow mods, amazing job guys

I like it! Do the color match with your paint code and it will look sick. Red on red. (nice!) Or flat black if your not in the mood for all the hassle. Either way, looks sexy. Congrats

I like the painted black look, it would stand out very well against white eyebrows, creating an illusion of the white LEDs being even brighter.
Not a fan of the other combination though, the frost look reminds me more of MB's C-class. No bueno to me.
With that said, sealing the brow part is already tough enough, gutting that whole section would make sealing a nightmare IMO.

For the other colors. I got bored and wanted to see how they'll look. Once I put them on. They look like sh*t. Maybe on a black car with Lambo lime green like MAC's M3.
Going to try this one.
