Default Pix of new LED smoked sidemarkers and Z hood emblem

Also got windshield tinted to match all rest and I love it! No problems seeing at night. LEDs look great. All the guys at the Nissan body shop who helped with install were jacked about these. The smoked side markers really dress up the Lemans!

When I put the Top Secret Front Bumper on I'm going to leave of all badges. Do you think this will look good?

So, would it be LED lights again and would they be difficult to install? I paid body shop time for 2.5 hrs to do front sidemarkers. Thanks Brian

those were amber LEDs in a smoked reflector, nothing there is red at all, but IME cameras REALLY suck at taking photos of LEDs. probably to do with its light output characteristics.

as for the backup lights and such, Im not sure exactly how thatll be yet. for one, if and when I do it, I will likely redo the ENTIRE thing(consequently this means not DOT legal... and as such I would have to sell it as show use only) however that does mean the lens can be tinted by me, and I mean actually tinted, not a film.

Thanks

I use Jaremeko Nissan here in Spokane. They are GREAT and take loving care of my baby. Not sure about the painting question. I didn't have anything painted. I had purchased a JDM paint pen touch up from Courtesey Nissan and the guys here touched up the two scratches I had from a car wash -- I know I learned my lesson!! Unfortunately my back is not as young as it used to be and cleaning is a chore!!! Anyway labor charges to pull bumper and install new side markers with LEDS and replace front logo with Z badge touch up my paint scratches was 120. Tinting front windshield was done elsewhere as that is illegal in WA. That cost me 100.00 and is 35 percent and works and looks great.
