Ive seen them. They look good if you can do it right, but all the ones ive seen look like one big LED from a distance because the LEDs are too close together, just like the bottom two pics.

I see a couple of civics around here with them. Looks really bad and not well done.

Yeah I've seen it here too.

If done right, I think it looks good. I had plans to do something similar inside my headlight housing (but still quite a bit different) but because of the popularity of poorly done Autozone LED strip applications I'm going to skip it.

IMO it would look better as a thinner solid band of light. Not a big fan of the little LED thing..

I think those lights should stay on Audi's and Audi's alone.

I dont like the dots on the cars that come out of the factory with them.. I saw a concept with a solid light thing running around the bumper, that looked good.
