So I just got done putting on new 20" wheels, red brake caliper covers, rear spoiler, white LED's in the entire interior, tinted windows, Tien springs, LED fogs and driving lights (took about 2 months) and now looking for something new to do. How would 2-15" white LED strip lights look in the lower black grill. I'm thinking that when the front lights are on it will show a nice matching light in the grill. Too much? Has anyone done this? What do y'all think?

First off, I want to see pictures of your car.

As far as the lights go, I think they look great on the new Audi's and Porsche's. I am afraid that 15" will look like the turn signal lights on the front of the Kia Amanti.

Do you mean just whit LED's to iluminate the fog light grill area?? Or are you tlking about putting LED fogs such as OEM Audi units in??

I am currently in the process of custom molding OEM Audi S6 LED fogs in to my y34 front bumper and removing the hideous square factory fogs, I will post pics when they are done for sure.

I'm talking about putting the lights behind-inside the lower black grill. I don't think you would actually see the LED strips but you should be able to see a glowing white light in the grill.

Just have to ignore the grumpy old men who made it to shift manager and Burger King and can now talk s*** on a car forum.

I think your idea sounds interesting, but I would say go with something that will give a more floodlight look than the spot light look LEDs provide. Just a thought.
