Can we get LED valve stem caps?
For me form follows function- in cars, architecture, product design, etc....
Nice work though, kudos for the effort

Haha... how did you guess that was my next mod?!
Haha...j/k. I understand where you are coming from and I was hesitant to do this mod but I thought I'd give it a try just to be different.

Although not my cup of tea...I do have to commend you for some original thinking and innovative effort. Most trends start with an original idea that catches on. You probably got the idea from Audi....but your trash can rim approach was innovative and worthy of comment.

I was gonna do something similar. I was going to mold the 997tt led lights into a gt2 bumper....but then I found out that they were $400+ per side and changed my mind.

The headlights look too yellow compared to the LED's. You may want to get like a 5K HID bulbs to match. Maybe in the picture the HID's are not warmed up yet?
Props for being original and innovative.

Great work. I can't decide which slat would look best: up, mid or low. Are they always on (DRL) or just on with the headlights? Do they blink with the turn signals? And finally, can you make them blink to the beat of music?

Big thumbs up from me. I think either stay with the middle slat, or go with the uppers slat. I've been hoping someone would come out with an LED kit for the rear lights of the Turbo for when I eventually get one. Where did you get these LED's? and how much do they cost? Do they come in red also for use on rear lights? I've been toying with the idea of making some LED's for my car both front and back.
