I have DEPO 2-piece lights - see sig! They're cake to install, too; since you don't have to trim the fenders. Straight up plug-and-play. You won't have fog lights anymore, though - the switch will now controll the DRL lights, so you may eventually want to get a set of facelift fogs.

the more and more i see the DEPOs the more i wanna go with them.. i do like having the fogs but it isnt like crucial.. could always go facelift fogs. i did order the clear corners last night so once i throw them on, ill see how they do and look.. if they bomb out then i guess ill go DEPO and facelift fogs later on.. the smoked doesnt look bad at all, but just isnt my style..

Well, I need new tires soon, so to me that means time to get new wheels. Money allowing, I would absolutely get RS4 reps, but it's more likely that I'll buy a set of B7 take-offs with very low miles. But if I ever buy anything that isn't stock, it'll be RS4 reps no doubt. There's nothing else for me.

Well, Sine had one of the corners fall out, so that's also why she went with the one-piece the second time. Yeah, I gotta say the one-piece look better. I had the facelift (2000) car, so I just did the clear corner mod. Hope you like the new ones.

It's true that one of my corners fell out...three times...on the highway. But that was because I mangled the locking tab. That's not at all why I went with one-piece lights though. I found the set of lights and tails for $50 on craigslist and bought them, listed both those and the Depos I had for sale and the Depos sold first, so I kept the one-piece lights.
