    OK ok guys, I had a good (i think) Idea on what to do for my head light mod. I have a Superwhite '07 4x4 with black bumpers. I want to do a WHITE headlight mod with black eye lids. What do you think? any photoshoppers want to help?

    ok I wanna get it photoshoped. I was looking at a picture of a white head light mod and liked it a lot. He had a color matched bumper and I have the black bumper so I was looking for the best combination. Thanks for the input I'm goign to try and get it photoshopped

    If you do the BHLM with black eyelids i would think the eyelids would stand out. Voted for the BHLM with white eyelids!

    I'm trying to do pics cuz i think you guys would really like my original idea. Anyone have any access to photoshop. Since I have the black bumper I was think of the eyelids to look as an extension of it. I like the white headlights because it is not common and would be sort of a unique touch to my truck

    That looks great! and it gives me an idea of what to work with. See my bumper is not color matched, it is black. So the basis of my idea wat the black eye lids to flow with the bumper with a white headlight mod to make it stand out

    ok I did the WHITE headlight mod (I just went for it and If I dont like it I have no problem doing it again, gives me something free to occupy my time with). I posted pics on my build thread, now I just need to find some eyelids!
