Nice retrofit!

I like it. Really flows with the car.

I presume you set this up as a DRL ?

First- love Oregon.
Next - I would like to see a side profile. I do not like the bumper color being gray - did you paint it? Looks clean. Would have to see in w/out lights on for complete picture.

What else have you done?

Looks nice! But I would have to relocate the radar detector eye. Got any closer shots to see the mounting?

By the way, anyone missing their LEDs on an S6?j/k Where did you acquire those anyway?

I was skeptical, but it doesnt look bad. As others have said, do you have functioning turn and fog lights?

They are used as DRL (daytime driving lights). I relocated the turn signals to the parking lights. I also replace the parking light housing unit to a clear one. The fog lights were removed to fit the LEDs. I simply went to my local Audi Dealership and order the Audi S6 part.

I like them so much that I'll probably do the same setup to my GS400

very nice; did the lights come with the wiring harness? if you could do a write up it would be great. now question for ya; you live in colorado so you get some fog there. are the led any better? i tought the day time run lights are good because they are the old style and give off more of a yellow light. very cool love the truck
