All off

Sidelights

Sides and brakes

sides and turn

sides and reverse


Not a million miles away from what the current lights are, but the solid diffused glow section would make all the difference I think, it would bring the look right up to date with the current BMW and Audi counterparts.

Rate or hate

Cheers

This is really clean. I love the way that you incorporated the curve of the light into the design. I also love the placement of the signal into the long section at the bottom. I think overall this design is miles more sophisticated than oem. Round off the edges for the brake lights and I would be interested in a set. Great work.

Just a quick thing worth noting, I looked at the other lights by Valenti to get an idea of what was achievable, rather than just designing something in photoshop that looks good but would be impossible to recreate, I tried to create something that was nice but also used elements they have used in other lights.

The only thing I do not like is that they look so bland when completely off. They kind of get lost.

I would not mind seeing some red similar to OEM when the lights are off.

I can create some more styles, as I said I went with that design because it seemed closest to the style Valenti have already done with the GT86/BRZ lights.

I'll do a few different ones and post them up.

I'd love sequential turn signals too, I don't get why no one has done this yet I have no doubt they would sell really well
