well I was seeing all the l.e.d strips for turn signals on the front but I think It could look pretty bada$$ for rear turn signals especialy if your taillights are tinted....here is a pic of what I wanna try to do *(updated pic with a lil more detail)



ok this is going to be one of those tell me what you think posts...so im ready for the flamedge just wanna know what you guys think before I consider it

it looks decent in a pic, but I dont think it will look to good in person. There just isnt enough room in between the tail light and the rear bumper to mount led's that will look good. They also kind of take away from the lines in the back.

But good idea

i was kind of thinkin of mounting an led strip like people have between the truck bed and rear bumper, underneath the car facing down and nothing visible so that when you step on the brakes the whole ground lights up.

ya after looking at it more it would look better if the leds were spaced out like that but in all reality it would just look like a solid red line. ......that might not be a bad idea mike

ive been wantinh to do it but my wife doesnt think she would like it.... it would prolly be best if you had an aftermarket exhaust but not the nismo.

it would work perfect because there is a plug in the bottom underneath the spare tire that you could drill a hole in and silicone around and then tap in to the brake light.
