not sure how i feel about them....more towards...doesnt look like it goes there...outta place somwhat...mayb if they were inside...

 

would have to see them in person.

 

I'll help you out.

 

Its creative.

I have never seen LEDs in that location before. They look nice.

 

Our headlights just aren't for LED strips...

But creative.

 

def creative, but they don't look amazing. props for being original.

can you have them one without having the headlights on?

 

yea, they come on as the engine starts

 

LEDs are for Audi's

on our car...meh

plus they care crooked/uneven...at least make them straight first...

 

sorry, they are not very nice

 

Creative, but i'll pass.

 

Says who? By this statement we shouldn't have HID's on our cars because BMW had them first.

Guess you didnt see my what am i up to thread either .

 

not my thing. . . but if you like it, work on it and get them perfect looking (they need to be spaced appart evenly and level)

 

Though i do agree with some that they kinda look out of place there and not bright enough. They should be inside the light.

 

definitely needs to be inside the light housing and perfectly even and consistently aligned and pointing straight forward. think the new A4's headlight housing with the LED strip.

 

having a different type of bulb and having a different set of lights accenting the housing itself are two different things....

HID compared to regular bulbs are brighter and safer making it a matter of safety and quality..

LEDs in a row are for looks and this is the reason other companies do not mimmick this trend... b/c it adds nothing functional...

point... strips of LEDs belong in audis imo... they are for looks in audi's as well.. but look correct b/c the housing are designed around them and suited for them... throwing a straight set of leds in any car is a whole different story..

you can have your own opinion as well though

 

^^ somewhat agreed... the only car that it looked sumwat appealing on was the 3g TL, but it still wasn't AMAZING or anything, but i have yet to be impressed on a 2g tl... props for being creative though

 

^^I saw this in another thread, I think it looks awesome

 

^^ that looks really good... ive been thinking about those led headlights i like them alot. I always see it on that audi and I like it, makes me want to do it to my car. I wonder how that led strip would look with black housings also.......hmmm

 

Brian's car is just outta control.

He has a Top 5 3G IMO.

 

this is even worse than the guy who put the strips under his headlights on the outside.
and are those hood pins???

good on you for trying something new but just take it off.
if you want to mess with the headlights bake em and take out the amber diffusers.
-nice grill mod though....

 

Meh...I just can't find a good way to do LEDs with our bulky headlights. It works great on the 3G like the one above or on a silver 3G from here that also has them but on the chrome that's in the middle of the sidemarker area.

 

try some larger led's
what i'd like to see is the benz clk fogs on one of our rides, especially the 03s
think they'd fit better on our car. looks too small for such a large plastic opening on the benz

 

^^ I would be really interested to see that also.

I would say it would look better with bigger more spaced out leds, if I were to do this I would try to copy the 3g as much as possible.

 

HERE is the other guy who ran them on the bottom

i put some LEDs on my car too i wired them to my parking lights heres the pics

 

kinna looks like blue neons coming off the front of the bumper...

 

I like the fog light leds

 

It looks a lot better inside the headlight. ACURA`TL`TYPE-$ has them, looks pretty nice.
