    Dubs04wrx posted this up over on IA, and I like it. What do you all think?

    Note: He does not own this particular car, but is considering doing something like it to his own.

    I kinda like it. I've seen it on a red wagon. But the fogs were painted black too. Did not like. Now it just needs a FMIC.

    Actually looks more like an Audi styling queue than anything.

    I like the look well enough, but Evo X popped into my mind right off the bat.

    Me too. Only thing is that Audis and the Evo X have a grill surround which completes the look, otherwise it just looks silly.

    Berzerklo was thinking of doing this to his bugeye. I think it takes away a little of the appeal of the 04 front, but to each their own.

    Yeah, I even photo shopped (read 'used microsoft paint') some pics of my car to see if I would even like it. My decision was a resounding no. But maybe it would look better with a real photoshop but there are things I want to spend my money on first.

    I don't feel like it works as well on the bugeye, but I still think the blob eye is hot.

    They are ebay. I looked into jdm headlights but these are only a fraction of the costs so they are on hold.

    I had painted stockers you can sort of see in my sig

    This is all I thought about. I'd vote a BIG no. Plus it'll look like you have a huge hole in the front of your car like it was in an accident or something.
