Fitted these to my rieger style bumper today. whats you guys think?   
 
   
 
  
 
 
I have fitted them behind the mesh so they cant be seen when they are not switched on. they make my headlights look a bit rubbish now so ive got some hids on their way to match. 
 
they look alot better in real life,its hard to try and get good pictures of them.   
 
Im going to be selling these soon so pm me if you want first dibs when i get them in.

I can't help but think they would have been better in a straight line, along the top, but still, they don't look too bad.

They look alright, not my cup of tea though but If people don't try different things everyones car would look the same so fair play to you for giving it a go.

thats the problem though neil, the idea isn't different or original because audi came up with it and you can find them on audi's. 
 
I dont think they look that bad, but because the idea isnt original people will always see it as a cheap rip off of the original audi idea. 
 
the same happened to lexus lights, the idea worked on lexus the original people to use the style, but when every other tom dick and harry made cheap copies for different cars, it didnt work and ended up looking rubbish

I think this is true to some degree but when Lexus lights first came out they weren't considered "Chav and Tacky" by the masses, its only because like you said every tom dick and harry fitted them that they did. And now they just look crap! 
 
Modified cars have always been about borrowing ideas from other cars/manufacturers, take yours and mine Fabia for instance... we both have Leon Cupra R splitters.  
 
All im saying is that the scene wouldn't go forward unless people try different things. Some work, some don't. But why not give it a try?

FFS. Take them off. Its a Corsa not an Audi. Same with angel eyes, its a BMW thing so if you had any sense you wouldn't put them on other cars

Glad my car doesn't have them. I'd be pretty moist if I did have them and saw chavs driving round with them
