Default vent after burner

I will get a night pic of the whole car but just finished the driver side vent light on my c6. Yes I know red must face the rear--it does- but I was after a reflected glowing flame look. I do not run a front plate either. Looks cool - comes on with taillights.

I'll assume you post this to give people ideas and get opinions?

I don't think anyone can completely know how the lights look with pictures. Personally I think a single amber led that works with your turn signal would be cool. Definitely something I would not want running all the time.

Thanx for the post

Default turn signals

agree , turn signals are another way to go. by the way the oem rear side marker light is red. She likes it and so far it is just on her side. Yes I got the badge before they had to stop selling them. My connection is to the side front maker light --brown wire-- it could blink --have not looked at that. Yes it is hard to take a pic of.

Default cool idea

I think that's the best thing I've seen done with that space. I think the wire mesh is ok, but I am thinking a white light would look cool on my silver car. Red would look cool too. I'll have to look into that. Might be a nice look while on the road at night (and may improve visibility?)

Default vents screens

Actually if my pics were better, you could see the stainless vent screens -- If I can find this post tomorrow, I will post a link of where I placed the LED's.
