Biting another manufacturer's style actually cheapens the look for everyone.
who cares if the headlight lighting is a Euro Design.... doesn't mean we don't have the right to change the light design for our car!!! It's our car that we want to change up not yours.... so if you don't like it, don't post a comment at all.. everyone has different opinions on what they want done to their cars...

I think your head lights are pretty good. But I think it might some error when you tried to say that VW bug is not an icon. The volkswagen bettle is what made VW into what it is today, which makes it an icon...if I remember correctly that was their first car. Anyways nice job, do those leds come in a strip of some sort or individually?

I tried to take some night pictures, but my camera doesnt really do a good job at night. So unfortunately, this is the best I can do. These LED's are too bright for my camera to get a good shot. The LED's come out more like a single strip of light. In person, it looks a bit different.

MAS2377TECH - I agree. I mis spoke about the bug. But what I was really getting at was that the car is everywhere. The bug completely made VW and put the automobile in the hands of many people who otherwise would be walking. It is an Icon, but for a completely different reason that what I meant. And the LED's come in a strip, wired up and ready for power.

That looks pretty good, actually. I wasn't sure what they'd look like at night. Nice job taking the risk and differentiating your car (at least for now).

I'm really liking how they look in the first and second picture - Would be great to see if they compliment HIDs
