Thumbs up LED Sidemarker and parking lights form ares along with 6000K HID

Finally, they are on! Got LED sidemarker from ares like 2 month ago, but wanted to wait until I get the 6000K HID and LED parking lights and put them altogether.
They look awesome! the quality of the work is great!
I had 2 strips of LED, one for white, and one(signal) for amber, but didn't hook up the amber one due to some electrical confusions and problems.
Thumbs up to ares for great work! Loving' them!

Pix are blurry as hell, but I don't have a tripod and taking a night picture (flash off for the best result) with compact digital camera(less optical zoom) without tripod is PITA. So bear with me.

Very nice pics,

Jim your sidemarkers are ready to go, just waiting for tuesday for the post office to open up!

Im real excited that the blue comes across even with the headlight on, I was curious if they would. looking very nice.

for the curious ones, those are Blue parking lights. and the sidemarkers are 16white(6000mcd) LEDs.

Oh yeah...sure! I'd love to meet another Z people around here..
Also interested to check up your white LED parking lights too. Blue is nice but it is waaaaay to blue for me (hehe I love them )
so also wanna check some other stuff.
Because of blue LED parking lights, my headlights looks bluish even though they are 6000K pure "white" HID's.

Now...only the weather gets warmer and spring comes... Damn!
I hate winter!

When the spring comes... KW Variant 3 coilovers and 19" Volk LE37T Gold's are on! Can't wait till then!

Oh... it ain't that bright in person...it's just a picture...
Wish it was a little brighter tho. 2 strips of white LED's seem like an idea

headlights out the side! pictures do exaggerate.

2 strips that starts getting insane.



that was 2 strips of white. the camera does exaggerate the reflector appearance, but cant exaggerate the fact that it put out more light than most flashlights.

personally I like the new luxeon based reflectors better. thats just me though.

Strife, your sidemarkers are right under jims parking lights, all in the mail first thing in the morning.

Argh! Why did I get one for white and one for amber....
After I put them on, I started to think that 2 strips of white connected to the parking lights would be a hell lot of better idea..
Dang it!

BTW, ares, LED sidemarker I got from you isn't the Luxon LED's right? Since I got them from you about 2 month ago....
Sigh...why was I not more patient.... My minds keep changes!

nope, not the luxeon LEDs in there.

the luxeons are more dispersed light. hard to compare total output. looking at them; the 16 or 32 LEDs in total are brighter, but in a very different way. brighter like a light source rather than illumination.
