Front LEDs for 996 GT2?

My 996TT has full GT2 front conversion using all oem parts (not techart). Are there any LEDs that can easily be added as drls?

TIA

Seems like just about any aftermarket LED strip can be added to the front GT bumper horizontal slats, and look terrific. I say, throw them on a switch and rock it!

I was thinking of doing the same thing. There are plenty of kits online, and all of them can be made pnp with a relay and battery tap.

I would get the loose LEDs and drill the center divider. It would make super clean install, if you did the holes on the bottom back of the GT2 duct divider. There is plenty of room for a custom loom back there.

Stick on LED strips are not a great look on a Porsche IMO, but hey each to their own!

Something like this, not in red ofc.

That is interesting. Can you tell us about the wiring and how you stick the leds on the bumper? Nuts?Glue?
