Would these white/blue leds look ok if put into our headlights?

So i really like the led portion on the new audi headlights, like the new S5...was wondering if something like could be put in our cars and would it look out of place or funny?

I photochopped as best as I could. My car is silver so I think it would actually look alright. The photochop is not to scale (the led;s I mean). White led's i think would make it look clean, but if i go blue, i could change my stock bulbs to cool blue to match it, wach-yall think?

Would it be hard to do something like this? I see some room between the most front part and the closest housing. I think some flexible leds would work.

not sure if someone already did this. I know someone on the forum did the yellow turn lights, but i dont have a GTR bumper and I wanna try this badly.

IMO they have a wider headlight, so tends to look better. If we did LED's going down the side reflector of the headlight it would look better, and possibly make it dual purpose as a blinker also.

good point.

I think i will do this on my 06 sonata...hyundai copied A4 style headlights anyways, the housing looks very similar.

I belive some members on the 4th gen forums have done this sucessfully thus far. I would take that with a grain of salt, though - the audi provides a clean look as the LEDs are built internal to the headlights with reflector housings, something a straight-forward install will not provide.
