Other manufacturers have used them very successfully IMO. Look at the new Audi's. I think they look amazing at least on those cars.

When Audi first did it, it was cool, now it's overdone. Looks okay on a Porsche, but only because of the corporate connection and because Porsches are inherently cool. MB should be ashamed of itself.

I think Lexus should be ashamed. Wtf, it's a complete blatant copy on the IS.

it depends how they are installed.
but i think most car guys know which are factory installed, and look down at those who add them on.

They take away the beauty of the Angel Eyes. Don't do it

The same thing that happened with RR and the Camaro making copies of the Angel Eyes, you should be flattered you have something that other manufacturer's want to have as well.

It doesn't stir that kind of feeling for me. I just laugh, cuz mine looks much better.
