The blue one can be your daytime running light just like the Audi.

For the shroud, I used a 4 inch to 3inch PVC pipe adapter, unfortunately the headlight is not big enough to fit the shroud without some reshaping so I had to sand the top part of the shroud. I'll post more pics later this week.

Just saw this thread, and your headlights look outstanding!

I was going to try something similar, just with E46 bi-xenon projectors, and never got around to getting the fitment right so I just gave up. Looking forward to some installed shots...

Update...here are some pics. I will try get some better pics this weekend. I need to tweak the leveling a little bit.

I'm still not sure whether I like the look...I've gotten a lot of good comments on them from people though.

Very nice.. 1 of a kind.....If you dont like the look you worked so hard on you can allways just unplug the LED strip more a more typical look.

You know, I kinda agree with you. The quality is definetly there in the installation since it looks very clean but I think the led strip placement is a little off when you actually put it on the car... sort of looks like the car is getting misty eyed and is about to cry. But again, the installation looks great and I actually prefer the terminator look compared to my headlights. Any other ideas you might be thinking of?

big points on creativity...although that strip didn't look how I thought it was (or hoping) from how it looked in the other pics.
