I like the look. Was it expensive and did a local shop do it?

Cheers,

Nick

Because someone said it looks odd to them you think it's hating? Are you one of those people that have the "I <3 haters" decal?

I've seen real bad aftermarket LEDs on various cars in the Chicago area, I have to say without seeing your car in person, they look fantastic.

lights look really good, but you do realize your license plate shows in other photo and last one is scratched out...lol. I would have taken those Aspecs off the 3G and sold those privately and put some cheap stocks on, but that's the hustler in me talking. Any other Mods planned?

The LED's looks fantastic, most aftermarket jobs I've seen look awful but the way they integrated them looks OEM.
