go ahead and call it rice, but i like em. feels like a filled out high tech impression.

espelirs2k did this awhile ago

thought i'd share. daytime shots will come tmrw.

 

Definitely rice, but to each their own. This only looks good on Audis that came with it and have headlight housings designed to properly incorporate the LEDs

 

Never really liked those LEDs (on anything other than Audi) because they remind me of altezzas not on altezzas (or is300s) and halos on any non-BMWs. Just seems like another hopeless light trend.

You did a clean job though

 

Rice... however, not stomach churning bad rice. Infact it looks good, just out of place on a s2k IMO

 

not arguing, but rather asking: why is it ghetto or rice if you add leds to your car, but it's not when the manufacturer like mercedes or bmw build them in? i do recognize that audi originally designed them, but they do make sense in terms of road presence, safety and visibility.

 

I don't have a problem with them, but I prefer the round ones to the lines.

 

Nice idea, but they look out of place, imo. Audi has them actually integrated into their headlight design. These look a bit slapped on. There's no spot on the S2000 headlight to put them where they'll look like they belong there... Don't know if you understand what I mean.

 

I like the idea overall, but I think I'd want to make a few changes:

1. Lots more LEDs much closer to gether to look as much as possible like a solid line instead of dots
2. Inside the headlight housing instead of below/in front of it
3. Shaped plastic or resin 'housing' around the LEDs to make them look like they were designed in rather than added on
4. All the LEDs angled directly forward.
5. RGB LEDs so I can dial a new color based on my mood

 

I'd actually like to see one continuous line in the front (or back) that was red. It would slowly roll back and forth like a (new series) Cylon.

 

i agree, wish i could have found a better more unique place to put em. i tried putting em on the lower lip, the top and inner corners of the headlights but this seemed the best option.

i still think they look really cool when the car is far away, driving towards you. for some reason, the camera is having trouble capturing an accurate image as the human eye sees em.
