As for the Audi-style, PIAA makes driving lights that look like the A6 ones.

When I get my Kuruma style bumper on I'm going to try something. I still think they will be the Piaa's since those are bright enough for driving lights and will match my halos. Or maybe I'll do the yellow ones. I like the yellow fog look too...

Hmmmm.

If it looks decent, try to cut a hole in the bumper and mold them in

I did that with a few of my last cars. It's not easy to make that look good.

I think it would look good with the Nismo front bumper in the lower air intake area where the horizontal grill is located and with cars that have projector headlamps but with the average G35 it's a no.

I think on the 03-04 nismo front there is a great place to put them. There's a bar going across each front scoop that it would look great on.

i like this idea.. i might do that if someone else does it first and it turns out well

i'm not very skilled at DIY things unless I have direction. I just installed my leds, and they aren't bright during the day (dome lights and side markers) are these strips a lot brighter? cuz if not, they will probably look lame. the r8's lights are super bright, when i saw one around noon and its lights were on, it looked sick.. i gave him a thumbs up lol
