Not a fan myself, just the way its too obvious its a strip sitting there - maybe if it was one piece with the bonnet or something.
Ive always wondered what itd look like if a custom bonnet was made to come down more/modify the fender so you can stick in some good looking lights, maybe something like the new lancer lights... Im sure with enough money itd be easy enough.

I don't like eyelids myself but they blend in the ends of your LED's on the bottom half of your lights.
So....
They look good on your car......

Here you go, one with the bonnet, just try to ignore the front bumper....

I followed Vectose Mounting points which you can find here http://ftoaustralia.com/v3/viewtopic.ph ... bonnet+gas instead of drilling into the actual car and using blind rivets which would be better (what bennoz did viewtopic.php?f=22&t=15644&start=1080) but this method was just easier going with stock holes and drilling into the strut mount itself.

and you can just get the struts of ebay http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/universal-ca ... 333wt_1064

The top of the slots should be at the front I believe.

Edit: It seems that apparently they can go either way depending. Go off the manufacturer's recommendation. There should be a sticker somewhere.

I never had a look at dstocks' rotors, I believe he was telling us that his rotors are identical on each side.
