Default Audi style LEDs, Smoked corners, SL65 AP2v2's

So I really liked Ricks LEDs in the headlights, but frankly didn't want to spend $440 for the smoked corners and LEDs put in. With my dads engineering background (for wiring--which is quite easy btw), and my no fear to bake open 1 year old headlights we did this! Hooked them right to the parking lights for ease of use.

Also, I traded my AP2v3's for v2's and painted them SL65-Style inspired by 07rioS2K.

Corners:



Quick pics of the wheels:

I know it's a hit or miss with people, but when I saw it I loved it.

Thanks for stating your opinion with class, instead of saying "you ####ing ricer" etc, etc.

I would've liked it more if the distance between each LED is bigger. Looks a bit too busy.

Me too.. but when you buy the strips, it's a standard spacing of .75". I'm (well my dad ) and I are looking in to building our own strips, with greater spacing. In person, they don't look as busy as in pics though. At first I wasn't a fan because of the spacing, but it grew on me once I saw them in person.

Any pics of the full car during the day?

I'd love to see how the wheels turned out for you.
