My 2006 Blue Onyx IS350 with Custom LED Headlights
I have a few things done to the car, mainly factory parts like the spoiler, IS-F wheels paint matched Onyx Blue, Chrome Grille, a cold air intake and exhaust. I recently got new custom headlight built, and had them paint matched the dark blue as well.
The headlights have 8000K HIDs in the fogs and low beams. The DRLs have been disabled with relays so the high beams still work, but the DRL function doesn't come on at all. The CCFL Angel Eyes are hooked up to the running lights, and a custom setup of White LEDs come on like the new IS. When i signal, the White LEDs turn off, and the Amber LEDs come on and light up in sequence.
I plan to change the headlights up a bit in the future, with some 2 way LED Angel Eyes that work the same way as the LEDs in there now, switchback style. Anyway, check out the car and let me know what you think.
OFF
Running Lights
Turn Signals
And a short little video I just took:

The halos aren't bad (even though I don't personally like them on anything but a BMW), but I have to agree that the LEDs are too visible and this enhances the fact that they aren't lined up straight either. It isinteresting that you have them light up in sequence like that when you signal though!
Also, sorry but I'm not a fan of billet grille inserts either. The wheels look good though, not sure I've ever seen anyone have their wheels powdercoated the same color as their car!

it'll be much nicer if the leds are hidden.. or without the LEDs. the chrome grill need to go.
One thing tho.. atleast you have them inside your headlights unlike many cars i see on the street with double sided tape on the outside.
