    Do they not have a glass or otherwise cover over them, like the stock lights? In other words, is the surface lumpy as?

    i guess cibies is the next best thing after stocks... because eyelids are just plain lame and a cheap look.... so unless someone comes up with another design and VR4WGN can make them, then cibies is what i would go for?

    Have we got a redirect from here to the above mentioned thread?
    I'm not arguing...I'm just offering an endless series of contrary points of view.

    Quinton, just a picture I found the other day of a custom 8G bonnet design with multiple large louvers.



    This isn't something I would have myself, but you and others who are thinking about different styles and wondering what they may look like when finished, well this may help with the visualisation.

    I quite like this bonnet, its nice and subtle. I'm not sure how it would perform though. And I have to say I really don't like the front bumper style, but that's just me, never liked the evo style.

    nice.. similar to what im thinking of doing..

    but the vents would be evo 3 style.
