I agree, I think they look slick on Audi.

However, Mercedes put them on their e class and I think those look like garbage.

I'd rather see/prefer BMW's with LED AE's than the strip of LED's of other vehicles...

I agree, I'm not much of a fan of mercedes design. Actually most of their designs are butt ugly and the way they implemented white led lights follows suit. But bmw has great design except for the for f 10.

i'm sure they'll come up with some sort of LED DRL's soon. the land rover's DRL's are pretty nice: it's kinda like the angel eye but with LED's surrounding the headlight rather than a rod.

It does look sick, the only thing I don't like is how they turn off when the turn signal is on. I think it looks weird when you're facing an Audi at a light with one row of LED's and an amber turn signal on the other side. I'm sure there's a mod for that.

2nd. I'd actually rather see AE's on Audis as well over the christmas decorations they started to throw in these days
