Are these fixed or do they flash in with the turn signal, like this one?
Vent Turn Signals.

Also, did you try to diffuse the lighting, it seems fairly pin point, whereas I would tend to a glow.

^ Yours would look a lot better if the bottom lit up as well. Fenders lights? Hmmmm......I think im going to go ahead and make a "halo" that goes around the fender vent, under/behind it so you wont see it, but you will get a nice glowing ambient light all the way around so that it will look like the vent itself is growing, but you will have a nice solid even light! I would do this tomorrow. One problem, i have an LT1. Even though i am going to graft on ls1 vents. I'll get back to you guys!

Let us know how it works out (and post a thread with pics and steps). I have been toying with doing something like this. Ideally, I would like to tie it into the flashers, but that increase the complexity.

I see you weren't asking for opinions, so I'll keep mine to myself.
