    IMHO, I'll leave the LED strip for Audi just like leaving the angle eyes for BMW.;)

    Just my .02

    it looks cheap, but of course it will be an upgrade to the home depot parts. i have seen it done inside the headlight, but just mounting it on top of the headlight cheapens the look of it. it's basically xmas lights for your car and it's the neighbor that leaves his on all year.

    exactly

    itll turn out a lot better than what u guys are thinkin, at least from how i have it envisioned. As for the home depot lip, youd be suprise how many people have asked me kinda lip is that, and not to mock me but to actually consider it for their cars, at least the front bit.

    I like it. i was thinking of doing something similar to my car next spring. There is a mazda 3 that i see on the highway every day that has LED strips along the top of his headlights and it looks pretty cool. Theres also a thread up on tune my toyota of someone with a corolla doing it.



    EDIT: here is a tacoma with it done. not a real fan of it tho on that truck

    I think its unique. The 10th gen has about .5 inch space on top of the headlights. If this isnt too hard I might do it too.


    I'll give the rear 10 for uniqueness. -1 for looks. I think the white/chrome look kills it. I'd much rather go with the LED rear that someone on this board made. (i always forget who that is)


    I also think that depending on how it's done, halo eyes do look good on certain cars (if not all that have projectors). The camaro ones are excellent.

    the whole LED thing i think looks good depending on the car. on the 7th gen I don't think it will look good.

    Just because Audi Makes something or BMW makes something doesnt mean someone cant do a nice MOD .... I can understand that the first guy might not know what he is doing But I think 93geoprizm has studied and has the talent to make this happen .... Good Luck bro :)

    the tacoma has it mounted inside the headlight and the version that is being talked about here is mounted in the gap between the headlight and hood. it's very cheap looking and doesn't fit the headlight style as most of the cars with this have a clear lens.

    i've never seen a luxury Geo Prizm before. leather seat covers and fake sun roof would go along very nicely.

    You're better of doing a projector retrofit or HID's than doin LED strips on headlamps. Just my opinion...
