So some of you may remember from my intro post, or at least an early post of mine, I had a picture of the Bonneville like this...in fact this is it:



well today I had a few minutes of free time...so i played around with the spare headlight that was still paintable

Heres the results:






Well, I meant to have a strait line from the corner of the headlight to where the Hood and Grille come together, and it looked strait until i pulled the tape off . But ignoring the damage I think it would look cool, if it was a strait line. Its a pretty minor eyebrow, but if i made it lower on the headlight it just kinda looks funny i think. I'm gonna play in photo shop a little bit more and see what i come up with for a better design. I thought about just going strait across like Pat did his, but I'm didn't like that idea too much. The paint actually almost matches, its pretty close, if the rest of the car was clean it'd show better in the picture

Opinions?
Suggestions?

Wouldn't hurt to get a little more aggressive with the brow, it will look great. Take a look here:
