Not feeling the front one for some reason, esp with hazard mode activated.
The rear sort of works - maybe just dialled back on the overall brightness, subtle rather than in your face.
Expensive mod nonetheless, but if you're happy with it, that's all that matters.

the motto "you have to pay to play" rings true here. unless you are a competent DIYer, paying someone to install something is unavoidable (like death and taxes) lol! props to bigblack06 for doing something different (albeit expensive) and unique. it's all part of the enjoyment process in modding.

Yeah! I agree it's different and I like! It took a lot of trust to have someone else do it not knowing what the final look would be but way to go.

Yeah, not feeling it personally, but still a great job on the work done! I'd rather wrap my grille with little LED's during Christmas time haha.

Looks too flashy for my taste, but what kind of LED are you using for the parking lights? that thing is bright! I need to replace mine lol.

Those are not the same as these as they were made custom.
