My "RICER" headlight project

[dafizuck]

I am pretty bored of most of the mods going on to these cars so I tried to do something a little different. I know some peckerwood on here is going to call it "ricer" so I did it for you...
Heres how they were as of this morning:

Paint started flaking off anyway so the time was perfect. I sanded all of it off and got the surface ready to apply the eyebrows. I was considering painting the same color as my car but decided to just keep the black. When I picked up the eyebrows they were one piece but I wasnt willing to live with that so I cut them where I felt appropriate. I only had the sandpaper and drive to do one headlight (corners will be done too of course), but here are a couple pics to get this project going.

I dont have any work to do on the engine to get her going so I figured this would be the perfect time to get the looks up to my liking as well. Will update when they are installed and when I finish the rest.

You usually have awesome taste for out-of-box but still good looking. Can't wait to see them done and mounted.

Hm I'm interested to see how this turns out...

VW guys take the "eyebrows" look to a whole new level with bozer hoods that come down over the headlights...they rip on guys who only get eyebrows haha

I had stock mid pipe and mine was ridiculously loud. I loved it though...

I finished the corner for the dr side waiting for the clear to dry. Wanted to take pics for an update but dont have the camera right now. Updates will be up soon.

[T-5 Killer]

[97stanger]

i always laugh when people call my headlights ricer. as said, if you like them who cares. I think they look awesome

I'm not sold on how they look off the car, but Id like to see them on the car first. Just trying to picture them on the car, I dont know that I'd like them painted black, without your car's paint being black.
