Question Custom Camaro grille with lights

I'm thinking of using a dremel to cut out the Camaro lettering on my stock grille and put a red/blue led light behind it so it shines at night. After completed just the Camaro letters would be lit up. I think it sounds cool, but has some one done this?

Thanks, but I am aware of that. It would have a switch on it. It doesn't have to be red/blue. Just lit up. Yay, or nay?

Most laws say that you cant have underglow or more than 2 sets of lights on at once while driving... If it is just the stencil like you said then I think you would be ok... Just have a switch to turn them it off when you get pulled over

Just have them set up so they dont come on when driving. You can light your car up like a christmas tree if its parked and for show.
