      I'm seen people put them behind the grills. That what he did. ^^^

      Get creative. How about LED's flush mounting into the bumper trim or maybe somewhere else?

          You could drill out holes in the same pattern as stock signals(rectangle), or put some LEDs on the side of the headlights in the grill, kinda like e34s.

              Hm, these are good ideas so far. i'd need to work on my wiring skills.. I'd rather put them in the grill as opposed to the bumper

                Good thread. Got me thinking about his more.

                  Wire up the high beams as turn signals.

                  (or drill into ellipsoids and put blinkers in there (like the way they did with city lights for euro cars)
