clearcorners.com makes a headlight similar to that.

No we dont, nor do we plan to.

The shape of the 350Z headlamp is triangular, LED rings are circular -- you DONT mix and match, slap things together, a few paperclips, some glue.. and wallah.. it looks good.

The LED rings we sell are only for a few cars, Lexus SC400, NISSAN S13 low profile projector conversion, and the G35 SEDAN. We have no plans of offering such kit for the G35 coupe nor will be offering such a conversion for the Z.

Simplicity is always better.

There is no way you could make an angel eye kit look good on a Z. The headlamp design just does not allow for two angel eye rings to be put side to side. It would also look stupid if you have them on top of each other.

I don't think it would look good on a G35 either. It's the way the lights are designed. Angel eyes don't work on stacked lights.

Lexus SC400:



Infinity G35 Sedan:



They work on CERTAIN cars.. not all cars. Image 1-2 is a SC400, images 3-4 is of a G35 sedan. Its just a matter of styling, thats all. If you try to replicate BMW-styled rings on a CRX.. it will look funny, like a CRX trying to immitate.

BMW's do not use LED to illuminate the rings, they use fairly high wattage bulbs to create that light and fiber optic rods -- they waste a lot of energy and create a fair amount of heat for *just* a parking lamp. Our design is a more expensive approach, using individual wide-angle LEDs in a ring array. The nice thing is, its not an immitation of the BMW lamps -- just a different style/approach.

Is it worth it? Making your Z look like a bimmer? Or shall I say, adding BMW signature features to your Z? IMO, and no offense intended, No.
Keep it real man, your Z looks good already.

I have a G35 and I think they look pretty good. Although I wouldn't buy a bunch of LED's. I like the fiber optic look of the company I posted.

I won't...I don't have a G35 or 350Z. Heck, I don't even like them on the Maxima's, and I drive one.

Already available, but not in white -- white is not permitted for the rear of a vehicle other than reverse lights. The LED rings we sell for the rears are being used in our 180SX dual LED tail lights, Miata, and will also be used in our upcomming 94+ MR2 tail lights and fully redesigned G35 coupe tail lights.. all decked out with hundreds of LEDs per tail light -- a huge upgrade from the stock clunkers.

ttyl!
