This is the first time Ive seen so much much people disagree with the lights. No one has ever told me its doesnt look good in person. I think it might be the pics cuz in person it looks nice.

i don't think it has to do with whether we can be like audi or not, since audi isn't the only car company with this kind of LED DRL anymore, and they still look good on the other cars.

i think its simply that in general these tacked-on LED strips don't look good on any car, whereas LEDs that are properly designed and incorporated into the headlight from factory look just fine. So if Lexus were to redesign the IS headlights with audi-style LEDs, it would work, just like it's working for other car companies.

I think in person they are trying to be nice, its easier for these guys to be honest since they don't have to look you in the face and tell u. I don't like em, and for that goes for most of the cars on here, but I do respect the indifference and usually don't voice my opinion and let everyone be an individual. As long as YOU like it then and FTW!

Sometimes different is good, but that just went over the top and beyond.
