Wow! Thanks for the pics, Good video, Are they visible in the daytime compared to OEM? I like the way the LEDs flow, reminds me of the 6th Gen 2016 Camaro. Very cool.

That would be fantastic! What I was referring to was the running lights, not brake lights. How the strand of LEDs flow. 'Similar' to the new Chevy Camaro or Audi A1

Very good video. Thanks, it really helps show off these lights. I agree about tinting the lower bumper lights. Any other planned mods?

I got a Jetta mid lower grill coming, $20 figured why not try it. I hadn't looked at these holes for more than a minute though... that Jetta grill may either just fill this hole or not be big enough! and slimming these vents isn't as easy as it sounds once you look at them! The passenger side one has the area the tow hook screws into so these vents need to be able to snap out if u want to get pulled out of a ditch or something lol. I popped off the back plate on my passenger side vent. They had some goop over one snap so it wouldn't easily come off the back.
I really am not sure how to attack these vents cutting the front area back seems more plausible but the 2 fingers are what clips it into the fender. blah.

Why would you order Jetta grilles when Q7 grilles are only a little bit more money. Is there a difference between the Jetta and Q7 grills? I think it will need some rigging to get to work. It will look good though!

Disregard. I thought you were talking about the lower grilles them self. Not the Honeycomb part. I was wondering why you bought Jetta grilles when you could've bought these: https://www.ebay.com/ulk/itm/281729692695

It all makes sense now. Lol!
