Don't mind the skin on the uppers, but the inner verticals with the sharp angles seem out of sync with the rest of the body lines.

But all that matters is if you like it.

The uppers are quite clever, actually, but I think squared off look of the smaller pieces should go. I suspect if that were part of a headlight re-design on a new MY, it would have many fans. The shape definitely works w/ the body styling.

The stuff isn't blocking any lights is it? I think I'd try to find a way to keep a similar shape, except do it one piece. Not my thing but not bad I guess. I'm just not into stickers.

He asked for opinions and was given one. Only positive ones should be allowed?

I think you've a beautiful C7.

Not being familiar w/ C7 lines per se, did you 'bob' the headlights?
If so it looks pretty good to me, as said above could very well be a design for upcoming C7s. Really nice job & very creative.
