    My VIN:    11035

    Removed the rear fascia and this weekend will be the front fascia as they are getting ready to be repainted plus I'm customizing the rear bumper and installing lights behind the letters. of course everything will be sanded down to be all nice and smooth show the first process is to cut every letter out and then carefully file everything down then sand it. It's a very risky mod but one I've been wanting to do for the last 13 years.

    If you don't like it you can just glue a SS piece of metal behind the cut outs.

    Consider using RGB LEDs and dialing in the preferred color ... or let the the controller rotate them through all the colors.

    This you? Got this off google. Even before Google I thought about doing this way back in the day and just now finally getting around to do it and I think there's only two cars out there that are like this but you never hear nothing about it. It definitely does look cool and I see this done with a lot of newer cars and since I've already updated my interior I figured I'd try my hand at something else.
