square lights don't exactly match the CL's design, but good attempt. hopefully you can undo and redo a better version.

I think it would look nice if it was amber...or maybe smoked.

The black just makes it look like those NASCAR's with no lights,just stickers for lights LOL

no offense, it could be re-done.. take that off the outside and black out your headlights, then apply piant where you want on the inside of the lense. it will look much better

I think blackhousing them and smoking the insides like I did with my corners would look 100 times better, but I def don't think they look bad

^ yeah?

looks like you really just want a blackhouse. a real blackhouse will give you a clean black line on top(eye lids)
and clean one down low( eye lashes)

it jus looks like thats what you were attempting.

I wouldn't have done the corner all black, possibly would look better with a strip on top and bottom.

IMO just leave the eye lids if you're going to keep what you have.

props on doing it your own way and trying something different, but it doesn't look as clean as a simple blackhousing would. i generally don't like eyelids anyway, they usually come out tacky looking and poor quality. the very few i've seen that i've been NEUTRAL towards have been on e46 m3's.
