Default Custom headlights..need help

After watching this video by cin city i decided its time to customize my headlights. i bouht the sti clear lens already. I really like the color changing halo around the projector but cant figure out what I need to buy to get that look. At first I thought it was a flexible strip of color changing led's but led's dont like heat so wouldn't the heat from the HID bulb slowly cook them? Any help is greatly appreciated.
the part that starts at 44sec into the vid and ends at 1:55 is what im talking bout

This.
Washington cops are getting more and more picky about pulling people over.
Especially in the Bremerdale / Poulsbo / Seattle / and Tacoma area.

Lights look dope, keep us posted on your progress with these lights.
They look like it'd be a pain in the *** to DIY.

when you two say "rice" are you refering the the whole headlight from the video or just the color changing halo?? Because I agree the whole headlight is a bit much but I fail to see how just a colored halo is rice.
