Do my LEDs look cheap or amazing??

Last year I put carbon fiber stripes on my hood and since then I've wanted to get LEDs on the front around the grill area but NOT the illuminated Mercedes sign. I do not like the illuminated mercedes sign and it's too common.

And so after trying out different types of LEDs (strips, encased etc) I found these lights that I was able to get into my front lower bumper and inside the grill and also I was able to place it in a way so it doesn't shine directly on someone or something because that looks cheap too.

What do you guys or gals think?

Not feeling them. Plus I’m pretty sure its illegal to drive with them on in any color other than white. Blue light is a definite no-no as it’s reserved for LE or emergency vehicles only.

I'm not a fan. I can't say that I've seen my implementations of lights work in my opinion. But, it you like it, go for it.

If the lights alternate really quickly between red and blue and you’re driving fast, I really would think you’re a police officer.

kind of cheapens the front end. Too much uninteresting structure being lit in back

Not my cup of tea but to be honest if you personally like it then that's all it matters.

Not to jump on the pile but you asked OP. Definitely not a good mod for an AMG, this belongs on a Charger or a Honda.

I may be the only one besides you but I kind of like the blue on your white car, to each their own I guess. If I were considering it for myself I would want to see it in person before pulling the trigger.
