I understand that their will be a gap if I do use 2gb eclipse headlights on a 2gb talon bumper. My question is if it's really noticeable. I seen pics and you can bearly tell. Another plus, you get more airflow and your car looks sexy. What do you guys think of

I hate the talon bumpers
In my opinion a badgeless eclipse bumper looks a hell of alot meaner than anything that ever came on the talon
98 bucks + headlights= nice finished look
 
i think it looks straight with the flat black and the 2gb bumper. Pretty soon here i myself will have to weigh my options on headlights as far as 2gb or 2ga, but i have to find either a 2ga or 2gb bumper first. haha
 
I would also not prefer to have the gap but like the look more of the 97-99 headlights. My solution was to take apart my 2ga headlights and night shade the chrome part. I left the light reflectors untouched.
That would be my suggestion of what to do to get the 97-99 headlight look with a 2ga front.

@ snake looks pretty good. With your flat black murdered out look I would do the chrome blackout on the headlights. Would finish the look up.
The bumper is flat black but the car is rhino lined
 
I actually considered doing bodywork on my 2gb Talon bumper cover to be able to use the 2gb Eclipse headlights, simply because I feel they look better/more modern, but I didn't want to use them and have that odd looking gap. But in the end it would have been a lot of work and might not have come out right. So I just reverted to the correct fitting headlights. I might attempt to paint the inside of the housings black at some point, but honestly I think I'm over it now.

I couldn't stand the gap when I bought my Talon (the previous owner had 2gb headlights on it) so I actually bought a set of stockers, even though I prefer the 2gb Eclipse lights. The gap looks tacky and I know I'm anal about stuff like this, but it drives me crazy. Some may not care about a small detail like this, but I for one would love to see more DSMers put more effort into the details of their cars so we have more "finished" looking DSMs on the road. Seems like we have more and more beat up frankenstein DSMs driving around these days.
There no more gap. LOL. 2ga headlights.
