day running lights

by v6 steve » Wed Feb 09, 2011 11:18 pm

ok guy what do you think about day running lights, good bad or ....................

iv just built a new bumper for the and im toying with the idea of cutting day running lights into it, bear in mind that all new cars will have running lights by law very soon, so only try to modernise the look of the car

as much as i hear what your saying about the law, is there any real need for them. if some dozy t**t cant see me at night with my H.I.D's on ( happened a couple of weeks ago ) there's not much chance of him seeing me during the day with lights on :lol:

So does the Fiat but I've turned them off :sucking: I don't see the point in only having them on the front if they are for people to be able to see you coming, did they forget about the ones the follow you?
