Default LED Strip

Has anyone put Headlight LED strips on a B6?! I can't find pics anywhere on the net, except for that Devil Eyes kit, which I don't like. I mean like a custom job?

I know it's been done, I actually saw a b6 in new Hampshire with LEDs. Look on audizine.

Yeah, go to audizine b6 forum. Search for "devil eyes". You'll find a ton of hits. Helix even makes LED strip headlights for sale. Been done numerous times now. So if you couldn't find it, you were searching in the wrong place, or not using "devil eyes" as your search.
Some of us did a DIY job that turned out real nice, as well. There is also a dude that will sell a pre-made interior LED strip that isn't those cheap Chinese flexi-strips. It's the real deal. You have to know how to pull your headlight housing apart to install them, though.

I don't like the strip when it's cheaply done, especially when it's those Chinese flexi-strips you can get in any auto parts store.
I hate the strip when it's on any car other than an Audi.
But on an Audi, done well, I think it looks seriously bad-***. I'll have video of mine up soon.

On the wheel comment, thanks. Many say RS4 reps are played out, but I still think they are some of the beautiful wheels for this car. Mine are 19X8.5. I have spacers that get them to a total offset of et34. I run 245/19 tires for a a little extra protection. These aren't my track wheels so I don't worry about maybe a little roll that the wider tires may cause.
