Talking Red LEDs in Ram-Air Hood!
This is my first post. Figured this is the first post-worthy thing I've done to my baby. A buddy of mine did this to his, along with halogens around all of his front lights. Let me know what y'all think!

Plan on getting pulled over for forward-facing red lights if they are ever used on the street.

They're for parking-lot use only. When I get around to putting a remote start in her I'll probably wire it up so it starts with the engine. That'll be the only time they'll run without the toggle-switch.


To those saying ricey, yes and no imo. Any other color and place, yes. But this is definitely a KITT-style.

I think it's pretty cool. Kind of gives it an evil look. I think that's actually a really cool idea to have them turn on when you remote start it.

Anyone care to make a write up for this? I'm trying to figure out a way to do it for my sleak beak.
Sick nitrous purge, by the way.

Hard to tell, both posters with pics didn't use low enough quality photos. Maybe get the black car a little dirtier, throw some dirt at the lense, and then shake the camera while snapping photos so we can all see what they really look like.
