Default LED lights in a CME?Anybody

Has anybody drilled 2 small holes in each side of there CME tips and placed red LEDs in there to give that red smoke appearance?I know they'll get covered in sout.I was thinking of drilling 2 side holes in each side of mine and useing a 1/4 rubber grommet to hold the LED's in place and to make it easyer to pop em in and out for cleaning!

I'm gonna have to go with everyone else and vote not to do it, doesn't sound like the best idea.

The exhaust smoke isn't going to be thick enough to create a good red smokey appearance. This idea is best used for a nitrous purge, IMO. If your exhaust smoke is that thick, then I think you might wanna see a mechanic

Maybe do it to an aftermarket CME... Not to an OEM one.

sorry bro, that idea is lame. like 98 WS6 said, if you have that much smoke comming out then you need to get that thing checked out.
