Me neither, but I do like the look of the blackened rings. I'm not a big fan of optics, but this pulls it together much better...

Better than the ones that sit inside the headlights, however it looks like you sacrifice your foglamps.

I saw a MPV with leds in a similar position and they looked as these do chav. Subtle mods can look good on a car but most aftermarket lighting looks cheap and chav like. leave it oem imho.

I've seen posts on a US forum of some replacement B6 headlights with integral LED driving lights a la B8, but they don't make B7 versions which seems daft to me.

i agree that the ever increasing LED strips ending up on Nova's is chavvy, but I have soft spot for OEM S6 lights on an RS4 (as post) or RS6 (as iv seen on here)

Look good but not sure about them given that it looks like they are partially blocking the bottom air intakes (IIRC) which sit down there in the fog grills.

Top quality LED DRLs look good, and look different. Tend to agree these are a bit chav. Not sure why you want them...?

Also black rings just look like someone's nicked them.
