Any more pics? In general I only like angel eyes on BMW as they are OE to them, certainly on Mk4 Golfs they just look wrong. I seem to be the only person who prefers standard GTI lights to Xenons, the dots round the lens housing remind me of Minis. Anyway, I digressed, more pics of the lights on a car?

I don't think many people did this ccfl on they cars as you do have to put lights a part and I've seen the aftermarket lights with rings and do look sh*t as the amber colour. Bmw def are only ones to pull it off and I do agry about tacky but I think it's only for the look of the car to be honest, this rings and eye lashes for the lights and I think it will look mean. I might get it done just to see how it looks like as ccfl are only £35. Ill make a thread and keep people posted.

For headlights I would say its a definate no go...

for the foglights I think its a definate yes... had ccfl fog rings on my old polo 6n2 and used them as DRL's looked very nice indeed!
