That really sums it all up. The brand of the car determines whether a mod looks good or not.

I apologize for not realizing this with your first post.

I believe they put them behind the projector lens/in the projector housing so that you can not see the actual halo. Perhaps the light emitted was lower with the "thinner" CCFLs? From what I've seen it's always been the same amount of actual light volume.

I think the 370 is a nice enough car to pull the look off- the same with the "Audi style" LEDs.

Hey not stating a pissing match. When I think angle eyes I think BMW not oh thats a cool mod. I know some will say well the LED strip is audi. But for some reason when I see the LED strip it does not bring to mind and particular car brand. But hey that's just me. Other views differ and that is why we don't all drive the same car with the same mods right.

Those lights are beautiful - exactly what the OEM lamps should have looked like.

Nice, i've seen his work on myg37 and its quality.
So is this going to be the Silver Surfer mod?

Got to have those for my platinum graphite Z (painted PG not blue obviously). Was thinking of smoking but think the darker look versus chrome in the back of the housing, PG painted lamps and leds would look killer.

Any word on estimated availability or pricing?

Damn you are NO GOOD.. Beat me to a post i should have started .LOL

yes this is our project car, same car we are doing the audio build.

Black chrome housing with color matched projector cup.
It actually looks better in person that the pictures from our crappy camera. The upgraded 6k headlights were too bright and glared too much

Ucla bruin did the LED and assembly but we did the paint scheme Props to DANNY for the great job on the headlights

Here's more pictures







If you want your lights done, let us know With or without LED's is possible.

I'm very curious about the wiring for those led's. they look like luxeon 1W, 3W, or 5W, which providing (regulated) power and cooling is no easy task. Waiting for the full story from the man himself. Also like the paint job.

Hey Lou,

Why do I always feel like I am coming in for a landing when I look at those LEDs?
