Nice. So, just plug into the DRL circuit? I'd imagine you'd want to kill the DRL halogens but still need the brights.

Not bad. I'd really like if they came paint matched. Either way, they look good and I'll probably pick up a set

The LEDs just do not look good off. The stock turn signal lamp looks way better.

Off to a great start, i would only recommend a smoked lens on the leds, would help it blend in when off and it would have little to no effect on the led light output....
great job guys!!!

Maybe some light tinting to the lens would make it look a little more seamless, as is, the LEDs need a little bit of a redesign.

Here's what the "issue" is. It looks like reflector plastic which looks like crap.
![]() If it was completely clear like the stock, it would be fine.

Match the Carbon Fiber color to the colors offered by Scibaru and smoke the lenses and I'll be one of the first in line.

The Carbon portion looks really good but as others have said I am not a fan of the light. If these could be made to just integrate the factory light I feel it would look better. It's tough to say though to be honest without seeing them on the vehicle. They may not look as out of place when installed. I just prefer the factory light assembly myself but would love to have the ducting ability to the brakes.

Agree with the others. Either paint match the carbon or smoke the lenses to closer match the dark carbon color.

Thanks for the input, honestly didn't think I would have so many people prefer painted parts to Carbon Fiber but I will pass it on.
