Looks good. What brand/model type of LEDs did you use for the front turn signals and rear license plate lamps?

front looks good but good luck with only 9 LED for rear turn signal. As much as it looks clear @ night its basically useless during day. i have 27 LED and its still not close enough visible/brightness during day. And its not safe either. Prolly the only way to beat it is to get CREE LED.
Heres mine rear LED turnsignal:

Front turn signals are from VLED. license plate lights are from ijdmtoy.

^^I totally agree and aware of the 9 LED being barely visible to none at all during the day. I'm looking to change to a VLED one since I'm not feeling the "hyper amber (a bit too yellowish for me)" color.
