Illuminated grills...

Poppin Fresh · 10-03-2009, 10:40 PM

After seeing pics of the light concept car with the illuminated front grills, I'm wondering if some company can manufacture a grill/light module or if it's even possible. Or can someone do a quick PS of it on an M3.

Go to Pep boys, buy some blue neon lights and put them behind your grill. Well all tell you what we think!!!

Dude... , give it a try and if you like it, screw what anyone else thinks. Its your ride, your $. Haters will have their say... seems to be the norm here when someone does something 'unusual'.

You can do it, I really don't recommend it. The only cars I have seen pull it off are the ones that are all about show, think HIN:

Wow that's taking it overboard. Nick I didn't want it that bright. Just a sublte hue. I'm gonna take sum time and tinker with PS to see how it look. I really like how it looks on the Vision Concept car. It's another alternative to the angel eyes I think.

I would understand illuminated door sills, but illuminated grills? Thats cheesy...

+1, EXTREMELY cheesy. If you actually used blue like the car in the pic you would also be pulled over immediately. I like tastefull mods, but if one actually likes to DRIVE rather than just CRUISE you are attracting undesirable attention.

i beilieve that the grills on the Vision are made so that the slats turn 90 degrees and make the grill look solid. i thought the lights are somehow built into the slats .
