Default Angel eye (halo) headlights?? & Audi style lights Ls 430 03'

I was driving around today and I saw the headlights on a bmw and it got me thinking. I was wondering if there was any headlights like that for a Ls430 available anywhere. I read the forums for previous post on the subject but none really provided a straightforward answer.
(separating my questions)
Also I was wondering if there was any type of light strip to give head lights that Audi light strip effect. If there is ,which i'm pretty sure there is, one can anyone tell me how good it looks?

I'm thinking about the same thing but for a DRL lighting.
I'm searching a classy solution not found yet

i guess i'd have to see it in real pic. it doesn't look too bad at all though in those product pics they have on the page.

I like that look. not sure what company to get them from, but Im also searching for the Halo lights for my 1970 Cutlass CV. I found a few places for classic cars.

I have that kit here, but am yet to instal it due to maybe doing something totally different.
The kit seems to be of good build quality.

I associate this type of mod with cheaply built cars in poor taste trying to mimic cars which come with them from the factory.

No disrespect but im not asking for opinions on how it looks. I want something unique of a lexus im not trying to imitate anything i just find these appealing. I've read other post about halo lights and please nobody turn this into a "rip off bmw" arguement haha

No disrespect received...totally get what you're looking for. I don't believe there are any companies that offer this type of product, so you'll most likely have to create them yourself.

Angel eye kits are available, but you'll have to perform the retrofitting into your headlights or find a shop that can do it for you.

The kit in the second post is specifically for the early LS430.
If your after that look, purchase it from them. I might even sell mine if your interested?
