New Mod?

What do you guys think of these? Except have the LED's be white instead of the slightly yellow shown in the pics.

Yeah I'm not a fan of it. Especially the plastic, but it is good to see new ideas coming out from aftermarket manufacturers.

not a fan of the smooth plastic surround too.
The visable screw holes are unrtunate.

The pricing is on the high side.
I like the LED DRL on the E62 AMG and hoping there will be an aftermarket retrofit on our cars.

It will look better if they have only LED (fog light removed).

Looks like someone just shoved LED's above the foglights. I like the idea of having both of them in there, but the placement and design is poor. Anyone check that site? Damn they are expensive!!

I am not a fan of these new LED lights at the front. They look cheap and why copy Audi.

Would they look better color-matched?
I like that center spoiler. I have never seen that before.

the only company that can pull this off so far is audi... all others look bootleg as hell.

Doesn't look very good, just cause the original fogs.

seriously..
audi's leds work because they actually incorporated them into the design.
just because audi uses leds as a gimmick dosen't mean it will make a car cooler by slapping on a random trip of leds.

yeah that center spoiler caught my eye too. I also noticed under the SLK section they have an airbox, says it fits the 350 which is the same M272 we have. I wonder if it would fit our cars properly? I emailed them to see what they say.

"This Sport Airfilter Box have 2 additional openings and a membrane left and right at the underside, this gives your car a more sportive, duller and aggressive sound from a speed from 3.700 U/min. fits all SLK R171 280 and 350."

maybe put the darkest lamin-x on the fogs (to kind of distract/hide it) so u dont see them sticking out so much.. and then have this..
