So I got bored two days ago and then it happened. Even MORE LEDs lol!
Night pics owned my phone cam, but you get the idea:

Glowing emblem:

Glowing rear lower reflector:

One day I'm going to drive with everything on at the same time and see if a plane lands on me ^_^

Paranoid of being rear ended? I know I wouldn't drive behind you :laugh:

I like the ones in the bottom reflectors, could be used during heavy fog\rain.

Reflectors look dope.

 

[CMEJATT]

i love the reflectors ... ]

and the led on the center of truck reminds me off the new dodge chargers (kinda sort off)

ive been wanting to do LED reflectors for awhile now, looks good.... but damn that is some LED overkill! i dont want to ever be driving behind you!

Hope you get pulled over for that eyesore.

 

[Aragrev7]

Haha... Not gonna lie, I kinda regret the middle strip, wanted to see what it looked like lol. Usually how my boredom projects go. I don't even turn my others on anymore. They really do look brighter than they are BUT the reflectors worked out great though!
Poor car is just a guinea pig sometimes!

And actually am worried about getting rear ended, but not thaat much. I just have too many LEDs laying around... really.

Good idea on the reflector

 

[Dannyv]

did u wire the reflector to have them turn on with rear lights? looks nice! Too much LED going on, keep it clean and simple, too much is ricey and like a kid, u wanna be sexy but not draw too much attention.

 

[Aragrev7]

Haha... I want to do.. Whatever I feel like XD. I don't run off others standards (except for imp parts -> works best) And when I'm bored I tend to rewire EVERYTHING bc it's free! Just trying out things here and there. If I had real money I'd do real parts. Tbh, the lights are a lot more subtle than they appeared. They just owned my phone cam at night.
*I have them wired to tail lights coming on. I was planning to put a switch in, but I didnt have time/the switch. Ran the wire up thru the bumper to the driver tail - just tapped in. Nothing crazy.
OH and I got the idea from another Kelowna TSX when we talked about doing his!

Just curious, but what does it look like in the daytime? Do you see LED strips everywhere??

The night look reminds me of the current Dodge Charger tails.

Zulu is mean.

:laugh:

The strip and emblem just look terrible. Liking the reflectors though. Anyways, nice try, good to see innovation.

 

[bluefang08]

I like the lower reflector but the rest is a bit much.

 

[americrack]

Are the reflectors LED too? I'm thinking of turning the reflectors into brake lights. What do you guys think?

 

[firstsx]

Same what led did you use

You can turn them into brakes, I believe you tap the white wire instead of the red one? Haven't tried tho.
I really do like the emblem tho. Everyone asks where I got it. Some place sells them for a ridiculous amount, so I made it for a few dollars vs hundreds(?). In fact a one group rolled up in a stealthed out g6 and all four got out. I thought my life was over and they started freaking out how 'killin, ill, dirty[] etc words I don't understand" - then I knew it was too much. Although oddly enough they went nuts most about my Acura center caps LOL.

Let me know if you give it a try. I'll send some pointers.

I didn't use, but easiest is to buy top shine LED strips and just stick them under the reflector!

There's a company that does the emblems lighted up, I think they are called Amp'd Emblems.

Thanks! That's what I was planning to do. If I decide to do it, I'll let you know and maybe we can do a DIY for it.

 

[Racing Gear]

With all due respect as I love DIY work but you should have stopped at bumper reflectors only...

I had my LED bumper reflector set up for a long time now and I get lots of compliement too. However, I think it is time for me to sell mine as they are not so unique anymore...ha ha ha

 

[xjohnkdoex]

not a fan. it's like a x-mas tree back there. the reflectors are a nice touch though.
