I much prefer the "A-O" style for both aesthetics and safety. The ones above seem to have an odd flicker when signalling as well, not sure if they are meant to operate like that.
Not sure what you mean but off flicker, the led has to alternate between the 2 colors. Looks perfectly fine to me and ive had alot of people give compliments on them

Care to explain why you feel its a safety issue? I personally think the amber off amber on looks like **** and your right back to OEM look

"Pretty sure a cop wouldn't be too pleased by it either" now that was funny! ahhhhh you CA guys kill me. Sucks to have so many restrictions in your state

As far as I can google (LOL), Florida traffic law only requires the turn signal blink in Amber. I can't find anything that says Amber-Off, Amber-On. In all likelihood, Amber-White blinking behavior is fine.

I think the flicker is a perception thing, switching Amber-White, instead of Amber-Off. Doesn't look right to me, either, but it's not my car and I'm not fond of switchbacks. I actually like the look of amber against Moonlight White. Creamsicles... yum!

I don't know why, but I'm surprised by this.

IDK what to tell you. Amber-White switchbacks don't appeal to me.

But I have been considering Amber-only LED replacements. Not a priority, though.

It's all personal preference. And like you always say, "they're just cars."

I will say the amber signals are MUCH brighter and more crisp. Pictures and videos don't do them justice. Amber only would still look vastly superior to stock, in my opinion.

It's good to see another Vossen member on board the forum Drive Clean, so I hope the changes don't include new wheels! Lol Car looks real nice man!

Lovin' the meaty tires with the slotted rotors. Can't wait to see what you've changed. And I can't wait for my my rotors to warp so I can upgrade too!

Always dug photos taken in front of dealerships...maybe the juxtaposition of stock cars vs. a nicely modded one?

Great shots up there!

Thanks everyone! I probably shouldn't have hyped up these "changes" haha. All I really did was switch from springs to coils and changed up the stance a bit. I also did some headlight demon eyes which I think I shared here earlier, as well as some engine bay dress up.

I am! That would definitely be me, I live in Edgemont. Doesn't seem like theres too many modded sedans in Calgary, it's cool to see theres another forum member right near home!
