Default Eyelids or No Eyelids..

I'm really not sure if i like the look of my car with, or without eyelids. What do you guys think? Cars pretty dirty in pictures. Also, i plan on painting the eyelids if i decide to keep them.

I got some and think it looks quite a bit more aggressive! If I ever paint my car, i'll get the lids and grille painted as well.

Forgot, my grille and eye lids have been painted black so it is more rich.

Those are old pics. I now have an Accord emblem in the grille, and the bumper lenses are black like yours. Once I get my rims back on and the car washed i'll get some new pics.

Im a huge fan of eyelids on a 6th gen,they have the perfect slope and angle of the housing of any generation accord.IMO.

But in your case,i suggest either 1.ditch the projectors and get oem housing with the eyelids,or 2.Keep the projectors and ditch the eyelids.

Kinda throws the look off.

My thoughts exactly as well. One or the other IMO also.

Well to be quite honest,if i saw a honda accord 5th gen,with "ebay" projectors,painted eyelids,i wouldn't hesitate to call the owner a "ricer".On the other hand,if a see a nicely done,well piece of work,put together with a painted eyebrow,i would say,hey that looks really good and unique.

In my opinion.
