Default Almost complete... (Pics 800x600)

My attempt at the angel eyes as seen on some of the BMWs.





I used red LED's to start off with, however I think I'll be changing the colour to a white LED for legal reasons to start off with. The picture of the one in the headlight was just there temporarily, I'll get some pics up once I've completed them both.

Have you been over on the Calais Turbo forums?? I saw a bloke in there with the same mod. He got flamed like nothing else for it, but I think it looks good.

Yeh I saw that as well, but frankly I don't give a $|-|iT :P it's something that I've wanted to do for a while. P.S. Not having a go at you mate. Thanks for the comments!

Looks great. I always loved the style of the BMW 5 series headlights. Looks great!
Would look better when you do them in white ;)

Can you actually buy these as a set/package or do you have to make them yourself?

al, the only thing illegal is the colour, the actual angel eyes themselves are legal, and used in bmw headlights.

Cant say they do anything for me. kinda the same as leds on you washer jets IMO. Seems like I am way outnumbered though so go for it.

Nice to see something setting some falcons apart from the pack anyway.

I would definately change to white for legal reasons.

I think some colours are legal (atleast in Victoria). You are allowed to have decorative lighting as long as it doesn't dazzle other drivers and you don't have red lights facing forward or white lights facing back.
