So I bought this for about $10-15 on ebay and took 10 mins to install all four and it looks fantastic at night.

Good mod...unless the film "burns"...
It looks kinda cool, not saying it doesn't. Just won't last from what I've read.

This is true. My first set lasted about 6 months before the sharpness of the image started to fade. Wind Fire Auto is a bit more expensive than the eBay brands, but with free logo replacements it's worth the extra dollars. I have a spare set on hand and when I replace them I just order another set.

I was at the Audi dealership a couple weeks ago & all of the '17 models had this as a standard feature.
They started doing something similar with Ford Mustangs a few years ago. Definitely not my bag.

Not trying to start a fire here, but for everyone who opposes this modification - if the car came from the factory with that feature (as some have suggested for the 2017 Audi models), would you remove it? Or would it be acceptable because it was blessed by the manufacturer?

It would still be something I think is really cheezy and not what I would want. However, I wouldnt take the time to remove it if it came factory as it wouldnt be worth it to me. But if it were an option on a new car I would definitely choose to not have it.

If it came from the factory with the feature, it wouldn't burn out and look like crap in a couple months (or less).

This is useful for me because my bride thinks there are only 4 different cars in the world anyway: Every sedan is a Camry, every small car is a Ford Fiesta, every truck is a Ford F150, and every SUV is a Suburban.
My old Mazdaspeed 3? Ford Fiesta. My Jaguar XFR? Camry. My S5? Another Camry. My F150? An F150... oh wait she got that one right.

Yes, I'd turn it off / disable it / remove it if it was an OEM feature. Probably would be my first mod. :)

The childish attack on his preference is what's the lamest part of this thread. It's pathetic how you bash anything that's not up to some standard that everyone must adhere to being an Audi owner. If he likes it then cool. If you don't then don't get it. FOH with the Audi Mongering.

Must depend on which ones you get and where. Mine came from Amazon; Wind & Fire Auto was the company. Have had mine for 12 months and they look great. Only one issue, user error, was leaving them in while they tinted my windows which faded the inserts badly as the lights get hot when left on for long periods of time. Free replacements though so it only costs me like $3k in shipping for another set.
I think doing the fronts only looks great. All four is a bit much. Audi Rings is the best IMO. I get compliments all the time.

Amen. Personally its not my thing but he's making the car payments and its something that's only visible when the doors are open for all of 20secs.
This reminds me of years back when everyone got on Lexus when they had the fake stacked exhaust on the IS-F how everyone derided them for it. Look around now every single manufacture is going even bolder now. Same as their grill. Too big. Now everyone is going all grill and no bumpers up front.

while his choice to mod his car is a preference thing, with no universal standard for whats better compared to whats not, its very clear to me, that this is not even in consideration when talking about must haves on a mod list.
