Looks like a fun project. I personally don't like the narrow eye kit, I think the wide looks better, but hey, you've already got 4 lights up front to light up the night.

Thanks for posting the pics.

I was wondering what that would look like as I may need to do something along those lines for my little project.

The primered one in the pic above is mine before I painted it.
I only have a bug eye kit and stock (cut) fenders. I don't like bug eyes either.
No offense!
Good luck with the project!
I like the color!

Mine are just on a switch by themselves right now. I want to use them with the other two on high and lows on my current switch eventually.
Your kit looks like it was made that way, or somebody did a good job blending the nose into the fenders.
