Super thin LED strip Fog Light add on

Its interesting... if you did some sort of bar it may look better. Did you aim the LEDs down at the bumper for a reason? seems like that

It would look much better if it flowed all the way down the outer sides. It just cuts off abruptly while the rest of the shape flows smoothly downward.

Sorry, I don't like it...

spyderco10 · 05-06-2009, 02:12 AM

not nearly as nice as the Audi's

Mike@MWDesign · 05-06-2009, 02:56 AM

I think they would look a lot better in a sealed housing like how Hella has them. The fitment looks a lot more OEM

ronushi · 05-06-2009, 03:08 AM

the third picture it looks like the scoops from the scuderia

donnynsc · 05-06-2009, 03:43 AM

Nah, not feeling it either

Hoothout · 05-06-2009, 09:36 AM

it looks alright, but its not my cup of tea

jackolo · 05-06-2009, 09:49 AM

I want it... but I know it appeals more to the ricer side of me.
I don't think I could pull the trigger on a product like this as is.

valeram · 05-06-2009, 09:52 AM

It is OK I guess but it is an Audi copycat.

doba_s · 05-06-2009, 09:59 AM

it looks very cool at night ... but not my cup of tea

johnhk79 · 05-06-2009, 12:36 PM

looks terrible.. need to make a custom mount so it goes in the middle instead of along the top

There is a "pimp-o-liscous" E90 335 in my neck of the woods with the LED strip mounted just below the angel eyes. Total Audi rip-off. I can't help but assume "tool" when I see it....

The OP's application is interesting, but not my cup of tea.

IMO Its a cool idea.... I think you should try tucking it in the bumper so you cant actually see the strip and have the holes illuminate; you wouldn't be able to see it in the day but it will look pretty cool at night.

rav7ks · 05-06-2009, 01:43 PM

Looks homemade.
Doesn't flow with the front.

modbargains · 05-06-2009, 01:44 PM

Interesting, just not my cup of tea, too much like Porsche / Audi IMHO.

chris s · 05-06-2009, 01:53 PM

Agreed...if you wanted an audi look, you shoulda bought one!

Robert · 05-06-2009, 03:03 PM

where did you buy the strip

ZorroSoBe · 05-06-2009, 03:58 PM

horrible!

sr2003 · 05-06-2009, 08:16 PM

got the strip from my friend.
