ive made eyebrows with jus removing the headlight assembly and applying numerous layers of paint using masking tape to create the effect...

ive noticed fellow enthusiasts actually creating moldings...
also ive noticed ppl shaving the nipples off the lights ...
any idea as to do that ...

any help would be appreciated...
PERHAPS WE SHOULD GET A SHOP TO MOLD US SOME EYEBROWS..
HOW MUCH DO U THINK THAT WOULD COST.???

Well, there are actually many different ways to make eye brows. You can either us: Black electrical tape, black paint, GTS paint, actual moldings, etc. There are many ways. And about that thing with shaving off the nipples on the headlights, I would not reccomend this because you may actually crack/ruin the headlight. I do recommend doing this though if you are experienced in this field. I will probably end up getting the 97+ headlights because to me the 95-96 headlights are just plain ugly. Later

Eyebrow

No...don't paint your glass if you are a 95
instead get a headlampcover (clear) and paint that
if that is not available for pre 97 headlamp
use black electrical tape
I did that....Took me forever to get it right and clean...due to the nipple on the glass.
Good luck....

What I mean are the lights that you see when ever you press one of the seven buttons on your a/c unit. Like, the factory ones are green. When I changed all my interior lights, I changed these to blue. It looks much cleaner. I will have pics soon. It wasn't eas, please know that. I don't think anyone has done this before so I was eye balling it. Email me for more info. Later all

I used vinyl to make my eyebrows. They are subtle because I kept it above the headlight nipple but they flair at the end like M3 eyebrows.
