Post by: AutobahnSHO on November 15, 2008, 11:13:01 AM
I saw these lights in the rearview yesterday morning:

I totally dig it. Unfortunately I can see a ton of ricers emulating it.

What do ya'll think?

(And when will I be able to get some for my Minivan and Subaru?!?!?!!!  :rockon:  :hammerhead:  :lol: )

I prefer BMW's "Angel Eyes", personally.

I don't think they would mix very well with popup headlights.

I don't think ANY aftermarkets will compare with the syle and elegance of the Audi. The curvy line is just SOOOO sexy.

But I want some too..

Those aren't even Cavalier wheel covers, those are Cavalier knock-offs. :lol:

btw,

Did you know they PATENT wheel designs? 
I don't just mean the cool rimz or nicer aftermarket wheels. But the regular ole' OEM types.

-I was searching for something else and found a bunch of patent pages for wheels from the big three US makers...

Angel Eyes are already pretty popular in the aftermarket, it won't be long till this is too.

I have seen them already in Camry, Accord and Mazda 6 ... all look crap considering how big and wrapped around the sides their original headlamps are.

nononono

They look good in the Audi because of the curve and that the curve follows the car's lines...
