As do I, but not ones that are modded poorly like this. Might as well leave it stock if you're going to try and cut out your own eyelids like a 3-year old. I could train a monkey to cut out eyelids more symmetrical than these!

What he said. If you actually spent a little more time on them and cut them even and had them body color this would have looked half decent.

But they aren't even the same!

The eyelids are intended to be an extension of the hood! I could have got the same results you did with electric plastic tape or gorilla tape. Done right the color matches your paint color, Jose at IONIC on our MARKETPLACE is the "Go to Guy" for eyelids done right!

Unpainted lip, gtr emblem, tint eyelids + stickers = recipe for real gtr. Get it back to stock and sell it. A g35 doesnt deserve this honda treatment.

Not a fan of anything you've done to the car. Your car though. Good luck!

For real.....maybe you need to re-evaluate how you spend your money. The $75-100 cost of those eyelids is like a tank and a half of gas.

ahh 17 years old.... i remember those days. that's when i wanted a integra and put on universal muffler, cut the springs to lower, white bulbs, any kind of rims, etc... basically cheap out on everything... making the car look worse. Kind of like what you're doing, OP.

Lol being 17 is not an excuse. Im 17 and I'd never to do something like that to my G. Money is an issue, but saving up is the smart thing to do. Dont cheap out cause you'll only end up paying for the same thing twice.
