Ever since i saw the Audi R8 headlights i wanted something like that. The only thing i didn't like was how big the bulbs were. (Too big for my taste) I tried making designs on my spare usdm headlights but nothing was turning out good. Then i picked up a pair of EDM headlights. Bought some HIds for the projectors and started to draw out the designs on there. Did a little reasearch and bought some 3mm white LED's. I could do a lot of stuff but one of the thing i dont touch is wiring so i let this place in chicago handle all the wiring. Then i just put the headlights back together, and finished...
Will take some pics tommorow in the day after i adjust the Low Beam bulbs a little more downward.
I wired them to the parking lights which are not on in the pic. (1 bulb was out so i took the other out to make it look simetrical)


btw sorry for cell phone pic.

Looks like the same sorta idea, this was done on VolvoSpeed and he just had them around the projectors, same idea and probably the same sort of LED strip.

He will be lucky if he doesn't get pulled over a lot with these.  Driving and headlights have to be white regardless of what state you live in.

For mine i strip wasn't used... its all individual bulbs. Also i didn't want a full curcle cause i didn't want it to look like halos.
