Adding LED lights to the front of your Z4
Audi and Porsche have great looking LED lights on their cars and I wonder if anyone has added them to their Z4? I found these and think they might look nice mounted under the silver horizontal fin low on the car.
http://www.ringautomotive.co.uk/prod....asp?prod=2143 I wonder how difficult it would be to get a product from the UK to here in Canada plus would I have the skills to wire the lights into the electrial system? RET |

Less is more
I think the Angel Eye, Corona lighting of the BMW is very distinctive for the BMW brand and elegant in its own right. The other German manufacturers have nothing like this to compare. Throwing a ribbon of LEDs is not distinctive on any car.
You don't want your car to look like those silly jeeps with Hella lights all over the place do you?

BMW started the Corona rings as a unique signature. They're all you need to look cool. Audi/Merc etc have just introduced LED's to copy BMW. This happens so many times e.g. large alloy wheels, welcome lights, soft touch interior plastics, stop/start technology etc etc.......
BMW are the leaders! |
