Here’s a video showing you how to create the LED eagle eye rings for your car. That is really awesome, just looks like the one in bimmer. What we called that, angel eye, eagle eye or something. Huh, look pretty much the same. Video after the break.

The reflective tape upgraded to the ring is to make it brighter and stand out better. This simple little trick traps the otherwise lost light that would have escaped into the reflective bowl, causing irregular light pattern inside the headlamp which blends out the ring. It’s not about having the brightess ring; it’s about making it stand out and doing it cheap. LED is the way to go.

This is not any new episode of Top Gear, it was added in YouTube a year ago. Just wanna share a little about Perodua Kenari with you guys. There are lots of Kenari here in my city, everywhere. Some said that Kenari’s cornering sucks but I don’t think so. Don’t try to swing around with your Kenari (if you have one at home). Just check it out in this Top Gear segment will do, a cornering test on Toyota Prius, Perodua Kenari and Smart car.

Hello GTR fans, here are some shots of the 2009 Nissan GT-R from vanq photography. It is spotted in Singapore, painted in flat black or matte black. At first glance, I thought it was a screen shot from the Gran Turismo game, lol. A thumb up for the photos, nice work.

It is called the “GINA Light Visionary”, this Bimmer Concept has a body made out of cloth. The metal body of the car has been replace with a special, flexible, highly durable and extremely expansion-resistant fabric material that stretches across a metal structure.

With the development of the BMW GINA Light Visionary Model the BMW Group presents trendsetting solutions. Chris Bangle gives us a first impression of the ideas behind the process of sculpturing an experimental study. This is the story behind this innovation!

The latest car to go under their knife is the Ferrari Enzo, and despite the fact that many Ferrari purists would argue that the Enzo is perfection embodied, Edo would disagree.

Changes include a new ram-air intake system, high-flow air filters, FXX style headers, high-flowing cats, a new exhaust system with remote-controlled butterfly valves to adjust sound levels on the fly, and a modified ECU that helps power levels reach 700 hp and 527 lb.-ft. of torque.

That power is then moved through a retuned transmission that replicates the shift times of the FXX bretherin, and then out through the 19 and 20 inch blacked out rims that are an Edo special.

Suspension has also seen some improvements, with compression and rebound that have been adjusted to match the FIA GT MC12.

According to Edo, 62 mph is now dispatched in just 3.5 seconds, and the car will reach 186 mph in just 22 seconds.

I guess even perfection has some room for improvement!

This Bimmer is designed by a 3D graphics artist Guillaume Mouton. Mouton attempts to visualize the next-generation BMW M6 model of the 6-Series. Is it hard to make one in 3D, I haven’t try, it looks great.

Mouton seems to have blended the shape of the long gone 8-Series Coupe with elements from the current 6-Series and the 4door CS Concept.

Based on the LP640, IMSA reveals the 2008 Lamborghini Murcielago GTR. This monster is powered by a 6.5L V12, generating 631hp @ 8000rpm and 487 lb-ft of torque @ 4800rpm.

The strikingly aggressive and aerodynamically highly effective front apron (spoiler) perfectly aligned to the wheel arches (widened 35mm on each side), directly becomes apparent. On the upper side of the wheel arches, imsa CFK air ducts have been integrated, resulting in a significant reduction of the drag effect caused by non-aerodynamic airflow at higher and highest velocity. The imsa side-skirts on the underside guarantee the optimum airflow to the imsa diffuser, which has been developed for an aerodynamically perfect interaction with the imsa rear spoiler. Imsa herewith achieved to considerably lower the downforce at higher and highest speeds. The benefits for the driver are a significant enhancement of driving stability, safety and enjoyment.
