I can appreciate the work you did to complete them but it reminds me of white Christmas lights around a house. They don't fit on a sports car.

I would like to see a view of the entire car with these lights, not just a zoomed in view!

a cit to fit piece of lexan sanded over the lights would make it look pretty sweet.

It looks better from a distance, I would like it better if it was bit more subtle and there was no LED around the larger ring and just around the parking light and along the bottom.

The pictures don't really do it justice it looks great in person.

your craftmanship looks really good, but imho halo's or eyeliner not both. if you had only done one of them i would totally love them.

Agreed, a bit too much ... if I was going that route I may have tried something more like:

I think that looks totally awesome myself. Wish I could do that myself, too afraid to crack mine open. Looks like a really pro job too! Congrats.

same, appreciate the quality put in! Though i have a strong feeling that halos should be on bmw's or audi's and anything else with them makes it look cheap.

Nice effort put into these.
Guys of course it will look over done when he shows them in a dark room next to each other. Look how good it looks on the vehicle. Very subtle and real vent for the era of the vehicle

Ok, so you can take off the plastic exterior lens.

How do I get a NEW LENS on my cracked and fuzzy left xenon light?
