Could you take a shot in the dark? Like you outside the car with the door open? Also, when you say a switched option you mean it has an on/off switch or color changing?

I will take pics tomorrow night for you! and switched as in an on/off switch. They only came in one color, red. They have other options on wiring such as integrating it with the dome lighting, but I wanted to where it was more of a special accessory at my disposal

Awesome. That's what I was looking for. I like the look so far, just want to get an idea of how bright it really is. Thanks!

I was unable to get a good picture due to exposure with my camera, but the red LED really isn't too bright due to it's color. It's softer than say blue, or white. Not overpowering at all.

Finally put on rims!

XXR 527 18x8.75'' in Chromium Black

245/35R-18 Kumho Ecsta LE Sport XL

The fitment is perfect. No rubbing anywhere, the tires stick out just a hair out.
Very smooth ride

It sits up too high for my liking, drop coming later this month

UPDATE: 4/28/13

Put Eibach Prokit springs on the car, 1inch drop.
You can fit just about two fingers in between the tire and the fender.
I measured 6" from the ground to the bottom of the car as well.
Overall, the quality of the ride is awesome! Corners very nicely, and it eliminated some road hop I would get before the drop!!

Love how this is turning out, sorta the same style as I am going. I dig the tails also! I just recently painted my calipers red also, looks great on the firestorm imo. I was also thinking about the drop since my new wheels are 18's instead of 17's, maybe it will sit a little bit better. Check out my build in my sig and let me know what you think of my progress!
