Should I paint the eyebrows I got?
Got my eyebrows in and I LOVE them. Can't believe how good of quality they are for only 30 bucks. Should I paint them to match my car (velocity red) or should I paint them black? They are a black primer right now. Here's a pic. Give me your thoughts. I'm up in the air....

For me, match it with the car color. If you don't have the cf hood, then go with black.

I'm telling you for 30 bucks you can't pass up a deal like this. Fitment is great! I wish it came with 2 sided tape, but its not a big deal. Mine are the Kei Office replicas.

Here's the links (he's got 3 different sets to choose from):

Definately paint them to match the car. I used to have a set but took them off a while ago. Just wasn't my cup of tea.

I would totally paint them. In my opinion if painted the car will look a lot cleaner, and more appealing. With the cf hood, black eye lidz, theres to much going on and then the car will start to look. ricey.
