Default Installed Eyebrows. Is it just me?

I just Installed Eyebrows on my SRT and not sure I like them. There is a gap between the top of the eyebrow and the hood, so you still see part of the top of the headlight and light comes through when the headlights on. I know I installed them right because I have seen pics on the site of others installed, so thats the way they are. To me, its suppose to give the impression that the hood comes down that far and not any gap! I think Im going to paint the top part of my light in the gap to at least not show light coming through it and try and make it look like 1 piece. Is it just me that this bothers? Ha! My wife says Im ****.

Are you really sure that you installed them correctly, I remember a thread where someone installed them back wards somehow and they had a gap.
Try this post, they look much better in the thread #16.

Yes. They only can go on one way and each one made for that light. Its just that stupid little gap that bothers me! I know you have to have some space there so the hood can come down, but if you put the edge of them right up to the curved edge of the top of the light, there is about a half inch gap that if you look down at the hood, you can still see the headlight edge! Dunno, maybe thats the way they suppose to be. Mine looks like all the others posted on the forum.. Just dont like that gap I guess! Im going to rough up the headlight edge and paint it with some of that Fusion paint suppose to bond with plastic and see how that works. I was going to post before and after pics to see if you guys think it looks better painted, but of course our pics uploader not working! Ill take pics anyway..:-)

Ahhh! I see maybe my problem! By looking at the eyebrow in # 16 and the one removed, mine is different! Mine is just a flat strip where those eyebrows have a curved edge which I can see covers up the top of the headlight! Hmmm. I must have got a cheap version of these eyebrows! Yeah, the only way to solve my problem is paint what the other eyebrow covers up.. Or just get a new set of eyebrows! UGH!
