i'd much prefer the look of it if it was a bit curved/shaped like it is in the audis.. that looks way too plain imo, i think i like the angel eyes more than these led strips

Perhaps if it is at least slightly flexible, and available in different lengths, we can put them where ever we want, instead of on the headlights.

Example:
If available in shorter lengths, maybe the front mouth grille on either side of the license plate? Like this...

Oh well, I don't think all cars fit the LED stripe light.

this is funny....vaistech is a great company that obviously has spent a lot of time doing R&D for it. this doesnt look like a hack job or something done in a garage. there arent that many parts as it is for most lexus models and instead of giving it a chance you people just equate it with cheap knock offs? how many times do you think companies copy each other in terms of design? most rims on the market are copies of someone else earlier design, yet most people still buy them. anyways, i digress vaistech keep up the R&D i think this might be interesting.

audi started the LED strip fad.

everyone else is just biting hard.

having it integrated into the fog lights is more acceptable.

While Audi/Porsche are the first with LEDs, it will become more standard as carmakers follow European safety laws.

Even though it's removable, it's not easy removable. It uses heavy duty industrial adhesive, so it can withstand all temperature changes and humidity. I guess you can compare it with the clear mask. It will take some time and a heat gun to remove it. So I wouldn't worry about "rude" people!

Interesting - our new tow vehicle (a Tundra) has pretty dim reverse lights. Wonder if I could use these to augment the backup lights. Would want it to be discrete though.

Definitely, we will have an option of just a straight line LED and you will be able to use it anywhere on the car, front or back.

It's a very common problem for a lot of trucks and SUVs, but with this much of the light you will be able to see clearly.

Thanks!
