looking through all the great pics in the air dam thread, I see a ton of you guys run these. I like the look of both, so don't really have a preference for one over the other. is there something beside aesthetics that makes so many people want them, or is it just for the looks?
just curious. |

Other than color, the difference is in the housing. There is a shield that separates 2 lamps. Most guys run Euro lenses with US housings.

QUOTE(kg6dxn @ Feb 6 2013, 10:19 PM)  Other than color, the difference is in the housing. There is a shield that separates 2 lamps. Most guys run Euro lenses with US housings. Ok, but what's the advantage to having separate lamps? And what's separate, is one the running light and the other just for the blinker? Wouldn't that make the running light white? And isn't that unusual, or is that the point? even the mods I don't like I usually "get", in this case I'm just trying to figure out why a group of people known for being "budget elite" would all opt to spend the coin this way. |
