The Mr Bean thing is pretty funny, though.

It's not like they're hideous or anything...
On any car, there's always going to be a styling point that you think could be better (personal opinion)

Just like on my M Roady... I'm really not a fan of the forward slash on the front fender with the Roundel hamburger.
But do I love the car's styling? HELL YEAH, it's the

, :biggrin:

& overall, Does the 135i rock?... HELL YEAH :headbang:

I think you can better reshape the bonnet than eye-browes. those things are really ugly.

I think I'm just going to put black tape around the headlights of my 1er. I kinda like the Cat addicted to Heroin look!

J/k! but I agree with a previous post saying that some body work done either to the hood or maybe fenders to trim down the headlights might help get rid of that felix the cat look it has!

I know someone with an e46 m3 who has blacked out reflectors... if that's your thing go ahead but I personally don't think it looks good... It looks very "self done mod" if you ask me. My 2 cents.

Not too bad IMO.

Guys, just as an aside...Ive been looking for eyelids for the 1 series also.
Some time ago I sourced eyelids for my existing 3 series & had them colour coded to match the Monaco blue metallic paint work.
It made the front of the 3 series look pretty damn grumpy!
Have a look.

I am expecting delivery of my 1 series convertible in September & would consider something similar to this for it too.
If anyone has any more news or updates on eyelid suppliers, Id really appreciate hearing about it!

Thanks!!

Sorry but

You need to do some pics from a little further away....those are way to close to look at objectively.

ptack · 06-09-2008, 08:03 AM

They look to tacked-on. I think the diameter of the cut outs is too small which makes them look paper thin and applied as opposed to integrated with the headlight design. The straight across brow works better.

O well....I thought they looked ok...they do look better when you see the whole front further away & lend the car a sightlier more aggressive front.

Ive only got the 3 series until Sept, then they're gone.

Well if that is the case then......where are the pics from further away? You still have the car so run outside and take a couple of quick photos so we can see!!!

never been a fan of eyelids.

sunking420 · 06-09-2008, 08:20 PM

I like the stock look. It's a 1....Got looked over on the road coming home from work today by a guy driving a 335i. He looked frantic and pissed at the same time. Oh well..................

BMW Dreamer · 06-09-2008, 10:35 PM

This looks absolutely terrible. YUK.

I dont care what they say Kab..I still want to see some pics from farther out. I think one cant make a good judgement unless we can see them the way we would normally look at them. No one gets that close to look at some "eyebrows"...so just post the pics damnit!

No worries. Will do.:wink:
Im at the office now, but will do later, or in the morning. It gets dark quickly now in Sydney, now Daylight Savings is over.
Cheers & all the best :smile:
