Question Eyebrows.....check em out - Lashway Motorsports

What do you guys think? We had some white vinyl laying around so we tried it out....if it sticks, we'll have the lenses painted so they match the white on the skin of the Vette.

I think if you could make the gap with the fender smaller maybe it would look better.

We appreciate the feedback. I will wipe my tears away with the vinyl when I remove it (hahahaha). JK!

I agree, the gap between the hood and bumper throws it off...hmmm

I think if the layout of the vinyl was changed, it would look better. IMHO, it doesn't really change the look of the car much. If your eyebrow design was changed, it would look totally different.

It WILL look good if the colors are an exact match. It looks funny because the white's don't match well. Also the picture angle is wrong distorting the view. Take another picture using a standard 3/4 view (and the matching white).

I agree w/ 2cnd Chance: What you are selling now, it seems to me, is the "eyebrow" appearance ... The fact that the paint doesn't match and there is an obvious gap is inconsequential at the concept stage.
My vote: I don't like the concept but I'll bet that more than a few do like it?..

It was a quick thing we did...just to see what it would look like. Of course it wasn't the finished product. I had some extra white 3m shit lying around and I applied it lol....the idea is cool, but execution is not on point yet...
