Default audi-esque foglights

has anyone seen the new audi s6's? how they have a foglight which looks like a line of several leds? i was thinking about doing something like that on my car. i found some white leds which look very similar to it on ebay, and im thinking about getting it. what do you guys think? would it look nice? or is it too much lights? i may or may not also remove the current fog lights in replacement of these.


and here are the ones from ebay..but i will be getting white


or this

Those leds are too dim to be of any use as fog lights.

They're more like daytime running lights for the Audis.

first off, you know those aren't foglights right??? (the stock things you "deleted")

secondly, I think they look awesome with or without the stock turn lights... I'd love to get ahold of some real fog lights like the Audi's

oh yea..that totally slipped my mind. haha if i am unable to source actual foglights like the audi's, then i guess ill just go with the cheaper leds.

and yes! suspension is definately on the list of next thing to buy. its just that those audi lights caught my attention the other day while i was driving and wondered how those would look on our drop dead sexy cars!
