The ones I have seen had unevenly distributed lighting which did not help their case.

dont care for the star at all. it is not subtle imo it is very noticeable to me and i find it to be tacky.

honestly if i bought a car with this option i would get rid of it if i couldnt turn it off because it would embarrass me

Not a fan at all. There are several on our street and at night it looks so bad to me. It reminds me of a cheap eBay mod that someone would do honestly.


Car looks classier without this feature. I think one of the reasons I do not like it is because it does not look like the sharp star. It looks somewhat bloated and or fatter than the normal star.

I think the illuminated star is perfect for the Christmas season, maybe we can get it to blink Christmas colors like red and green.
