Question Anybody done high intensity LEDs in engine compartment?

Have a Lambo Gallardo Superleggera with glass cover over engine compartment (see link in signature). I would love to put some very bright orange LEDs in the engine area for a nice glow. My engine will become my "Flux Capacitor"

Any LEDs bright enough to glow in daylight and withstand engine heat? Although I want orange to match car, Would also be nice if it could be one with a controller to have multi-color, patterns, etc. Kool if it could vary intensity with RPMs or music!

Also looking for custom shops near DC metro area that do this kind of work.

Thanks . . .

They make ones that can take the heat but they will not be bright enough to make the engine bay glow during the day. I have never seen any that would, at night would be different.
