A few appearance mods. Duel exhaust valance & LEDs
Some leds where there was no clear plastic piece around the bulbs aren't as bright. I based the voltage around 14volts, don't know if changing the resistors on those bulbs will make them brighter? I used 5mm leds and ran them in a chain 2 x 3 leds, 2 x 2 leds.
Rear fog light bike led brake light.
Led strip license plate.

The other was a massive square red block & the only thing I could find small & slim enough was a bike led, I've though about rigging something up in the tail light but not sure how I'd do it.
The valance I'm not sure about, for now I kind of like it black.

Unfortunately it's a legal requirement, can't get away with not having one.

Or...
(warning, my brain is running and sometimes spits out bad ideas lol)
What if you were to find a way to mount it IN the bumper? Like cut a small spot out right where the bumper and the valence fit together, so the LED light fits inside there? Between the valence and the license plate? It might blend it better anyway, being mostly surrounded by the light body color of the car.
Just a thought. Maybe a bad one.
Or maybe mount it on the lip just under the license plate. Might be better, little or no cutting.

I'd say go for it, make the car look more finished. I still want to play around with moving the tips out further though.

Right now though it's only temporary until I figure a way of putting leds in the tail lights or wiring the 3rd brake light to a separate switch on/off switch.
