Re: just started my eyebrow project

They should be bigger than that dude.. The hood you're trying to copy runs from corner to corner.

the guy who said its gonna look gay, well i dont give a shit, i think it looks awesome and thats all that matters, i was looking for people to tell me if they should be bigger and stuff which is wut SiZ did, hence the fact i thanked him, marked just gave useless info but hes known for that lol, j/p bro

Re: just started my eyebrow project

Looks real good man. You know a file will take care of those bumps. Most people never use them anymore, they are on there for aligning the headlight, but sence you got a big piece of metal behind half of it I'm sure that would throw the alignment off anyway.

Re: just started my eyebrow project

Re: just started my eyebrow project
