    The only reason I didnt get the ones you had were cause of the colours showing through

      I don't like them I am afraid. I don't think they suit the colour of the car. (From the pics)

      As you say, perhaps they are better in the flesh.

      Cheers,

        The thing is, I didnt like the standard ones either, cause the red really clashed with the ruby red paint!
        They will be tinted and fit in better

            Sorry Dest not doing it for me...another vote for a dark set am afraid. I actually thought is was a photoshop special to start with

            Got to love that Ruby though

              Look at the darker ones though, they are more like bloody multicoloured

                  I quite like them- as for tresers, they are also a bit "multicoloured" Mine am anyway and they are the real deal!

                          oh that might look immense on my very dark green 90
                          also on a white would be nice, for the contrast perhaps

                            Love them,love them, love them. They suit the colour of the car right down to the ground. Your mad if they go darker. Maybe if you put he black plastic center back on it may look better? But I think it looks great now, your sound wounders with that car. Keep up the good work!

                              Took this one just now in slightly different light from the first pic, this is how they look most of the time unless the sun is directly on them



                              Im still not 100% on them yet, but warming to them slowly!
                              Have always got the option of going back to standard and selling them, so not too bothered if I eventually dont like them lol

                                I've been researching how to tint the stock tallights and headlights on my coupe quattro with the v8 swap. Seemingly on the headlights i'll darken the inner and add clear lamin-x to the outside and possibly tinted to the fogs and clears and tinted to the rear tailights. Brighter bulbs in the rears maybe to compensate for the tint if possible.

                                www.lamin-x.com
                                I chose not to choose life: I chose something else. And the reasons? There are no reasons. Who need reasons when you've got quattro?
