Today I replaced my front amber turn signal bulbs with LED ones. It's a brilliant mod! (pun intended). Made some before and after pictures HERE

I also bought some Grimmspeed hood shocks, TRD Style Fender Aero Fins, and some Honda centercaps that I'll be painting gold to put on my RPF1s. Hopefully everything will be here this week so I can put everything on.
Came out nice! Did you use the 3M tape or go with another brand? How do you like the touchup paint? I've got some nicks that I want to touchup and am interested in your experience with it.

Thanks. I went with another brand. I believe the brand I used is Prostripe. I used the 1/8" size and bought it from Oreillys. I think they have it at Autozone and PepBoys as well. It seems to be holding up well so far. Cleaning the area with alcohol helps a lot.

I havent received the touch up paint yet, but i will let you know how it turns out.

I had 2 dealerships refuse to warranty that on mine, stating it was due to normal wear...
