I thought of putting it back on recently but Im still hesistating.

Those e90 sedan owners(aged anywhere between 22~30), you think its a good idea?

p.s: reason Im asking to those people specifically anywhere between 22~30 is because usually most(not all) teenagers think "rice" is cool. No offense, I know there are younger peeps out there with great taste in modding.

I like the eyelids on my car. Personal choice I reckon. Although it looks nicer on some colours .... I prefer it on darker cars.

i think they look swweet on darker colors... if done right they look clean.
although if i had euros, i would take them off in a second..
BTW im a "teen"...does this look any bit rice? lol i make sure to keep a clean design and on the sporty side.

The eyelids look fine to me... I personally woudlnt do it... but its not as bad as everyone thinks

SES_D · 05-14-2007, 07:45 PM

Yeah, eyelids look better on darker colored cars. Driv3rs car looks hot with them, esp. with the overlays.

I can barely vote! Only 15 days before my 30s

As for the eyelids... I don't like them in general. They may complement a small moderate looking car, but not a luxury sedan (Unless the headlights are just too ugly).

Roof spoilers and eyelids kill the BMW look. Keep it classy. e90 headlights are beautiful the way they are, even with amber.

Maybe... depending on the colour of the car. On the darker cars it looks good, but the lighter colours not so much. To many lines in the front and it ruins the flow of the car.

montreal_bimmer · 07-03-2007, 08:52 AM

not a fan of eyelids at all....

headred · 07-22-2007, 11:21 AM

Definitely better on darker vehicles... Aw or TiAg... not so good! Something about seeing the dark line where the eyelid meets the hood and the fenders... looks cheap!

shadye90,

I love your car, your pics help me decide ordeing my eyelids

nice yellow fogs!

BoostedBMW · 07-26-2007, 12:25 PM

I would ditch the eyelids and go with some euro headlights instead.

Bimmer335i07 · 07-26-2007, 12:40 PM

I'm 31, guess my vote won't count, huh? Then again, if I vote you won't know if I'm 31 or not. hmmm...???

lol!

Keep them off. My $0.02

Baseball7382 · 07-26-2007, 01:20 PM

I think if you have euro's then deff no eyelid's... if you have overlays though it could look good with the overlays and the eyelids togeather. Some people will probably think thats way to much. Check out swoops car, his car looks amazing and its alpine white as well. But the problem I found with the overlays is that the AW overlays dont come close to matching the color of the car. I had to take them off because myself as well as everyone else around said that they looked tacky.
