Removed the Audi Lights and Installed Angel Eyes - Also got grille painted:
**Note that the car was very dirty when I took these.




** I don't know why the pics make the lights look like they have a green tint, they really don't. The Halos are pure white and the pictures don't do them justice.

Got my new badge-less grille in today. My old one was super faded and I wasn't a big fan of the silver mustache.

Here's the new grille with and without my lights on: (Sorry about crappy phone pics)

You know, sans the Metra kit and single Din head unit, it it didn't cost much at all for my whole interior.

$40 for the lighting (fully adjustable brightness LEDs, go into trunk also)
$40 for the custom leather shift boot
$20 for the paint (but I did my engine with it too).
$10 for the Map/Dome LEDs

Overall look of the car IMO - Priceless
