Exhaust plate and license plate LEDs (pics)
Finally got around to installing some LEDs yesterday... I just have to swap out my trunk light bulbs for LEDs now to finish all of my lighting. I actually havent figured that one out yet and I also dont know where I put the bulbs... anyways here are some pics. I will probably remove the license plate frame because it reflects the license plate LED.

I bought both the license plate leds and exhaust plate leds from GS Creations. The exhaust plate led bar is very bright (as you can see lol).

Looks great! I also like the shot in your avatar. Those are probably the best non-pops I've seen on the C5!

Looks great. Did the same install in the exhaust plate area on my car last month.

The Jake plate was spray painted with gray primer and black plasti dip for the skull... the red actually makes the stripes behind the Jake skull look red when lit but its just primer gray. I didnt think it would light up like that but it gives it a whole new look at night.
JW-- yep, you know it! I love them. I had some chick and her boyfriend catch up to me on the highway once yelling "I LOVE YOUR CAR" -- it was nighttime so i assume the tails caught their eye!!
Oh and the headlights are radioflyer's slc v2... I carbon fiber wrapped the shrouds which i need to remove again this winter and sand/clear coat it better... probably need a little more resin too but I will work it out this winter
Thanks for the comments!

I will email you some pics of the shrouds. They arent the best because it was a pain to sand smooth (some areas are bumpy still) and I plan on removing them this winter and redoing the resin/clear a bit neater. I still want to order another pair of lenses and shrouds from you sometime this year... just to have on hand...
