So wait, you can't raise the front of the eye lid and match the gap of the hood? Meaning shave off the bottom left corner on the front to be more in line with the hood. The overhang there doesn't look good at all to me, would look much better on the same line as the beginning of the hood. Should be doable since the bump on the headlight doesn't extend all the way to the hood+light area anyways.

If that was able to be done, I would order a set right now.

well if you look at the headlight to make a piece to go over the bump and still have that "optical" look that it's straight is the tricky part. the line on the hood/bumper is in the angle of pointing right to the clear hump on the headlight (little triangle). well maybe there's an easier way but for now this is what we've decided to go with. after some tweaking will post more pics of the eyelids closer to production. so stay tuned.

+1,

also seems to me that this would help to clean up the awkward look of the turn signal by covering some of the lines that define the circle by giving it a tapered corner look instead. Or am I the only person that thinks this?

Can't wait for these to hit production.

no that was our first intention to run it lower. but this is the first mold and it somehow did come out higher on the side. anyway that was the first mold with no tweaks. so stay tuned as the fine tuning begins.
