Vettel body kit, at last

[neva4self]

If you use already an existing brand LED please use a good quality brand such as the Osram LEd's you posted on the first page. An aero kit cost time and money to purchase and install. If people can't afford to spend good money on quality then they can buy a cheap kit. I understand trying to keep it affordable but I'm interested in this kit, been looking forward to a good aftermarket option for a long time. I would not buy a kit with cheap LED's, I replaced my fog light bulbs with yellow Noyka bulbs more than two years ago and they are still going strong, the thread I started when I replaced them is dated 4/1/13. Who wants to have to worry about constantly replacing LED's , which will happen with cheap ebay LED's? Chep LED's will either blow out more often than would be liked or break the first time a decent sized pebble jumps up on the highway and hits the housing.

neva4self, the Osram ones seem to be really good quality, but they dont appear to be very bright. Do you happen to have any suggestions? I've been looking on the 'net for a solution as well.

Totally agree with you @neva4self, maybe the best option will be to sell the kit without the front leds? So everyone can make their own choice

Osram are awesome, fit the picture, also they cost around 150$.
But as @Nima said they are not bright enough, I'm gonna get one set to figure out

Unfortunately I don't know of a good quality option. Since I don't have any mounted on my FX I've never had the need to look. IMO most of those type of LED's don't appear to be bright when I see them on the road. If you notice a lot of car manufacturers are starting to do both the round fogs and LED strips on the same front end like the 2015 Q50. I suspect it's because the led strip is not bright and is more form than function so the round fogs do the real job. Honestly the only LED strips I've ever seen that are really bright are the ones that some car manufactures have began using in conjunction with the head lights. I've seen some of those that by themselves are almost blinding at night.

At this point in the LED game I think the LED strips are more for the look you will achieve. It's just my opinion but if you think you are going to like the strip LED's, which I think look great by the way, I think you should incorporate a good set and let it be. You can't please everyone and leaving it out sometimes looks cheesy because when they are not incorporated/cut into the bumper most of the time then they look like they don't belong when they are added after.

What's up guys, found a nice rear brake light from nismo 370z, I love it actually.
It's kinda not cheap, around 150$ just for the light itself, but I care just about quality and looks, so check it out.
Wanna hear your ideas



If you want to see more pics and videos of it
Just Google it
"370z led rear fog light"

 

[jimmij]

I like it and availability should be good for everyone as well.

Looks nice, not very Vettel-y lol its more of a square than a rectangle

 

[fx37sUkraine]

That's true

The thing is that it's available in US, and Canada, and it's NISMO!

Is there any way to see what the Nismo light would look on the diffuser you're designing? or maybe even a photoshopped version?
I'm still looking for better LEDs and rear brake lights.

 

[fx37sUkraine]

I suppose smth like this

 

[nima]

I like it. Doesn't look bad like I thought it would. I say go for it! Does it need any resistors or anything? Or can it be wired directly to one of the rear brake lights?

 

[TheRurouni]

When ll be the expected time to have the kits completed [emoji6]

@nima it can be wired straight to the rear brake light and that's awesome.

Sounds good. Please keep this thread up to date with price and date of availability when the time comes. Thanks.

Found a LED DRLs. Haven't ordered them, was hoping to hear from someone who may have experience with these.

7.5" 900 Lumen DRL LED:

Also found these on eBay, but as always, not sure about quality.

@fx37sUkraine: maybe both will be useful if the design of the front lip would have an option to include/install both the fog lights and LED DRL, and everyone can wire it as they wish. controlled together or separately.

Is there any rear aero kit available instead of the whole rear bumper being replaced? Something like the one in ARK's exhaust video

That was 1-off custom made one. Not really many kits out there. Look at sites like http://www.infinitiparts.ru/tuning?field_series=2 or eBay. Generally they all look... different. Not quite my taste.

Any progress on this kit, my kit is broken and time to change [emoji16]

Work is still in progress.[emoji24]
Got a new option, the lower inner part of the rear add on can be covered with carbon fiber, also the lower part of the front lip can be made out of cf too.
The kit can come prepainted or covered with any kind of film for the request.

There will be a lot of options to choose from:
1. Painted/unpainted/coated with film
2. With or w/o carbon fiber coating
3. With rear nismo light or w/o
The manufacturing process is almost finished so you will be able to place your orders very soon.
