But as I had said, F those foos! If you like em, then sport em. If you don't they peel off like stickers. Here's my tacky application attached. It was a dumbed down version of what I wanted. I was going to find a way to retrofit some real leds into the headlight, but just never came around to doing it. They're extremely bright at night, but fail to function as true DRLs in the daylight.
No need to explain yourself to anyone! Like I told tucker, and i've said about my uncle, if you like it? All the more power to you! It's just not my cup of tea One thing I did like however on his car (if he could have made it a bit stealthier) was the black strip of RED leds on his rear window right under his roof spoiler.... that looks soo dope at night IMO.... he had white ones originally and it looked retarded everytime he stopped hahahaha...

"Explain myself to anyone?" interesting...didn't think I was explaining myself, so maybe you can enlighten me with what I was trying to explain?

IMO I don't like it just seems to look a little weird for me I love the design on Audis but not so much on Lexus.
