I saw a couple cars online with those headlight eyebrows. I think it gives a whole new look and am thinking about possibly getting them. Painted, not carbon fiber. Has anyone had any experience with them? I want to make sure I get a good set (brand) No cheap crap where the light shows through. Feedback is appreciated..

like the ones i have:

no problem i'm glad i could help.

the painting process ir really easy, sand it clean it and then i put 6 light coats of milano red paint and then 4 coats of clear coat and they look perfect. insted of usinf the 3-m adhesive i used some silicon adhesive gel stuff from a hardware store and it worked a lot better. i didn't want to lose and eyebrow and good luck with the eyebrows. if you have any other questions post them here or pm me i will get either one.

Will do!!! Thanks!! Oh, also, can you gat spray paint in Honda colors? I have a can that matches from when I had work done on my car, but i think spray would be a better idea.

what color is your car? i got my paint in a spray can at Autozone for $4.00 and the little can was more then enough to get the job done.

It's either milano red or roma red. Can't remember. That's cool. I can match it up. I just thought you had found honda spray paint. I was like, "Awesome!" Cool. That'll do. Thanks so much for all your help!!

check out illuciv99 and ask him where he got his. his ride looks really clean with his on.

it's spary paint just not honda spray paint. they have the honda colors. on the can it says import spray paint or something just the colors of import cars.

I made my eyebrows with adhesive vinyl I got from a sign making place. I just bought a roll of the stuff for $10 or something, and cut them out. This way you can make custom shapes, make them bigger or smaller depending on your preference. Just a thought, it beats spending $40 or more for them.

this is an old thread and vinyl eyebrows suck ass you can see light through them and my eyebrows didn't cost mw $40 either they were on $15.

taking that one a little too personally...relax huh? just giving a suggestion to save some cash, and you can be creative with the vinyl too. i double layered mine so no light shines through. some people have complained about the eyelids coming off, the vinyl sticks well. and yes it was an old thread, but how does some more input hurt? don't take people's suggestions so personally, nowhere did i insult you or anyone.

anyone bought eyebrows from procarparts? or autodynamic. i'm about to get them...just need to know if any from those sites are decent...thanks

oh, any pics of ur eyebrows esp?

Their product quality is ok, depending on how much you paid for it. Did you get it from Ebay? Make sure you keep on them about shipping the product. I had some problems when I got my intake from them.

ok cool.. but which site did you get it from?..

And on the sites, I've never ordered from procarparts, but I have from autodynamic, and I've never once had a bad experience with them. They have fast shipping as well. :)

thats pretty hot.. did you paint them yourself? if so what brand of paint and what was the process?

Yeah, I painted them myself, if you go to any sort of auto supply store, they should have this paint called the Dupli Color 'Import Paint'. They're spray cans that come in the factory colors of the cars. They're hella cheap too, like $3.99 per can. All I used was a small can of the milano red and a small can of the clearcoat with plenty left over, and they turned out great. Just make sure you do lots of little coats instead of a few heavy ones. :)

(thanks to esp for helping me out a little bit ago) ;)

thanks for the info.. i'm gonna order some today.. but still debating on which site to get them from.. i have heard a lot of negative comments about procarparts.. but i got my reverse indiglos from them and everything was ok. .. i want to get it from them becuz their eyebrows come black <which is the color of my car> so painting them might be easier.. but autodynamic <better rep> has them in white.. i still dunno.. i am leaning towards autodynamic just for a better transaction...
