Just my opinion, but personifying a BMW too much makes it lose it's style (eyebrows, really?), with OEM the entire front face is subtle enough that it looks good. I think the exception would be the current Mazda 3, that's overdone and still looks great.

Then again, I'm not a modder and everybody's got different tastes.

Edit: Guess my only complaint is the eyebrows in that picture. I don't mind angel eyes.

For a price that's 75% higher than the RD's themselves?? You've got to be kidding me! Who the hell would buy that?!

If you plan on selling knock off Racing Dash products to your customers be sure to inform and warn them about the inferior quality:

This is the brightness 2 hours after installed.


And the LED chips became brown.
