    IMO, these types of eyelids just don't look right. It really bugs me that they don't line up right on the inside edge of the headlight. Should trim back that protrusion there so the inner edge of the eyelid lines up with the top part of the grille, instead of hanging below it.

    maybe check out the regular eyelids. they line up with the grill lines. See WW's truck on the banner for reference.

    nice I didnt know they made three different models of them.

    iamrayzian - I think the simplest solution here would be to just give me your truck then you wont have to decide :)
