Heres mine:
s2k antenna
painted interior
tinted my tail lights (dieselstation way)
tinted side markers
painted headlights
painted stock rims
All of them all you have to do is go buy some paint and good clear coat and you can do them...they make you stand out too.

i want to convert all the lights into high power leds but not sure if i can heatsink it enough since they can heat up fast and burn out since air flow is restricked in the frame.
but i'll give it a shot.

im a LED fanatic so i was reading about that stuff for months.
i still have a bunch of these
have them in Green blue red and cool white.
also i have regulators. and the 12v power is enough for me to run 2 LEDs at 3 watts each. its a constant current regulator and very small. (upto 94% effcient)
all i need to do is retro fit some CPU heatsink on to it. have it in passive mode and see what the stress test is like.
also have a backup plan. 40mm fans
