Led daytime driving lights

Since the car has so many boomerang edges i think the led's down the inside edge of the lights and along the bottom of the front light cluster would work

Since the car has so many boomerang edges i think the led's down the inside edge of the lights and along the bottom of the front light cluster would work well... adding them to the black intake part just looks tacked on...

The irony, and I have mentioned this in a past thread, is that I have actually seen these mounted on an Altima and they are certainly very bright so they do get across clearly what they are meant to do. I don't know that you could mount them elsewhere (simply because there isn’t much of elsewhere on the front of the Z) and have them have the effect they have versus simply being an accent accessory.

Im sure you can wire these up to light up at night, but I think once you see them and how BRIGHT they are, you wouldnt want to. Also since its a Nissan product it comes with all the wiring and harness so no extra wiring or splicing involved. And once again I have to say they are NOT yellow at all. As a matter of fact the Nissan service man couldnt believe how bright white they are, he thought is was the led's for the Porche.

They still won't grow on me. Nissan needs to have them incorporated as a sweeping row just below each headlight's bottom border. Now that would look niiiiice. These 'stickons' look like they are too close together and each light is too big. Might as well have made just a single bulb that goes in the middle of the grill...real iron man style.

I like em. I just wish Nissan would have designed them into the front bumper from the factory. Like the Porsche. It has them low to the ground below the headlights and it looks sick during the day. Pic never tell the whole story bro but again I think it looks nice...
