Mm, indeed, the photoshoot would've been much more interesting if the car was just a dull shadowy outline in the dark, duh!

Rocketman's a good *** song.

I liked the car better prior to knowing about all of the lights.

interesting idea with your side mirrors... i think I just found a way to integrate turn signals into my explorer's... thanks

what did you use LEDs or those CCFL rings maybe? and how many per side?

my favorite shot is of the grille

Totally not something I would own.

That being said, I really like the way it looks.

I've thought about adding orange into there as well, and running them as the signals, yea, but never went through with it. If you do, then DEF post some pics.

I used 6 green LEDs per side, 3 on top and 3 on the ottom. Although I'm pretty sure a 4" cathode would work really well, it'd just be a matter of being able to fit the transformer in or not. In my Alero I had red cathoeds in like that. I'd worry about the angel eye rings, because they're kind of fragile, but if you can get them in without breaking them I think that'd work great, too! Regardless, if you do it post some pics!
