Default Do we have a new wave of neon washer jets coming

Twice this morning already I have seen utter sheds driving around with a strip of LEDS under their headlights?


Is this a new fashion than has emerged without me noticing?

Similar to these but much much worse.

They look gash on Audi's, but it does alert other road users that an Audi driver is coming through, a higher spec one as well so please expect some ego related shennangins, to which YOU MUST DEFER.

Every new car styling thing appears as an aftermarket kit for old sheds six months after its seen on the roads, Lexus lights, BMW "Angle Eyes" etc.

I think I read somewhere that there is a new EU directive coming where all new cars will have to have daytime running lights. Notice the latest Porsche's seem to have them too.

Isn't it illegal, with those blue neons that you see, to have blue lights on anything which is a car not belonging to the emergency services?
