View Full Version : Eyebrows on a Zenki?

It occurred to me the other day that it'd be kinda cool to have "eyebrows" on a Zenki, ones which would give the lights a somewhat similar look to those on the Kouki. Has anyone done this mod? Does anyone think it would be a cool little mod to do?

BTW, I did a search, no result.

I have never seen brows that are designed to make the lights look like that of the '97~98....actually I have, but were custom done and looked cheesy IMO. Russ had his hood molded and extended to have an overhang which looked good, but othere than that ...blah...

There are some companies that make regular brows for the Zenkis....looks a little better than stock...JUN is one example...looks like you'll have to cut and paste the link...sorry

the worst choice is the bomex unibrow

the least bad is if you buy a cheap ass set off ebay

in all honesty, the all look out of place =/

i like ings and vertex eyelids.. those two are pretty much same.
it makes the lights sleepy... still keep the zenki look to it.

vertex ridge is sooo bad~~~!!!!!!

what about extend the hood a little so it closes over the headligths make it look more agesive??? they do that on VW a lot and look interesting =)

something kinda like this:

that's probably a lot more work than just buying a set of eyelids. but that does look "natural".

the two pics seiyess posted are hot. There was also a picture of black car in the gallery before with nice looking eyelids.

IMO, you have to have a pretty nice looking zenki to pull off eyelids. Kinda like making up for the rice factor with good wheels/low stance type deal.

I really like the extended hood idea, except it doesnt cover the corner lamps. Slanted brows are lame, it just looks like youre trying to be a kouki. Horizontal brows look nice IMO.

Get some vinyl and give it a try. If it looks like ass, take it off. Easy.

I think will look nice. i did ont my jetta (selled) =~(

I just meant a look kinda similar to the Kouki, not an actual kouki clone.

However, the ones in that link (the one the search turned up) look really cool. They remind me, more than anything else, of an S15's headlights. I might try getting some vinyl and doing something like that.

ROFL, i guess the Bomex would be called the uni-brow.

Bliss
04-11-2004, 06:12 PM
^^^ LOL ^^^

I dont understand why everyone is against the bomex lid, but think a hood extension would be better. its not like theyd look any different if done right. still, i think theyre both pretty ugly.

Eyelids are cool, but i dont think you should get eyelids to make your zenki look like a kouki. and what do u guys think about carbon fiber eyelids for the zenki?

I'm a big fan of the Ings lids...where the hell can I get them from though?

Eyelids are eyelids....all are pretty much the same...Looks wise.
