The eyelids aren't, and wouldn't be, flush. Molded or not. IMO, just keep them on the headlights.

If it sits on top of the headlight, It's probably not gonna look right molded

If you could find a way to do it right I think it would make it look like a G37.

Harrison, steal photos from greengoblins photo album....Or calvin.

But Greengoblins are black and easy.

They make some really good looking hoods for Audis which integrates an eyelid. It makes the car look so much meaner.
