Do they "help" or do they take care of the gap completely?

No, I can't, but thank goodness society now has Google. That's interesting, the Haas Effect, didn't know about that!
For everyone's info, I already have the eyebrows and, yes, they do help in covering up that inside gap (I finally figured out what Gorbetteam was talking about - I thought he was referring to the gaps around the HID unit, and I'm thinking, what gap?) I'm just waiting for my Brilliant Siver & clearcoat to come from Tower Paints.
The thing is the seller advertised the headlight units as for 88-93. In reality they make only one kind, which is for a 94-95. Hence the gap when you install it into a 88-93.

I dont understand why they wouldn't make the crystal clear headlights for our cars (86-93), they make mine without the 94-95 gaps...
Still, you car looks amazing!

When I purchased my lights, there were none available for the early model W124's, so I was stuck with the facelift headlights. Although it bothers some, it really does not bother me that much.

Hey, I'm sorry man. I didn't know your so handy-dandy cool type of guy. I think you did a great job w/great effects and if the eyebrowse help that would be really nice but if not....how about new hood 94-95.

I'm like 2phast, the gap is there, but it doesn't really bother me that much either. I'll experiment with the eyebrows and see how that works out. Plan B could be a 94-95 hood but that's at least $500, I think, + painting, and I just had the ol'hood painted. I wasn't aware of this gap as I was still working on the new headlights while it was at the paint shop.
