So while waiting for PB blaster to do its job on some trim bolts I decided to do angry eyes with electrical tape an idea i saw in someones build thread and after putting the photo next to others I see I went a little overboard with the tape haha!! What do you all think lets be honest no hurt feelings here

I think you just cut the already small amount of light output in half.

Many people do like it usually the younger crowd or the same guys that cover their jeeps in monster decals rofl. This is just honesty tho bud I mean you did ask for honesty and IMHO any time I see angry eyes in any car the word "ricer" comes in mind. But don't let my opinion or anybody else's discourage your choice to put angry eyes on your jeep

Lol, Commander swap?

OP, if you dig it, go for it! You certainly won't be the only person on this site with the angry eyes, it's your Jeep, make it yours. If we all built our jeeps exactly the same, it'd be a sad, boring world. And who knows, maybe the finished result of your build will look great. I personally think round LED headlights look awful on XJs. However, there's a member here with em on his, and it's one of the baddest, meanest looking XJs I've ever seen.
