How to install those Knight Rider front red wooshing lights?

I want to install those red swooshing lights that you see in the show Knight Rider. Anyone know how i can do something like that? (i'm serious about this)

I also want to have the Knight Rider theme song when i start the car, although this is optional. (i'm semi-serious about this)

Is this too cheesy?

The CBR has a mod something similar to this in the center between the two main headlights. The real question is how exactly do you want it show?

It would be cool if your BRZ was black and all blacked out and you had a turbo that would only work when you hit the turbo boost button

What's CBR? Link please?
I think this would look nice on the WRB color.

Where do you plan on putting them? In the upper front grille? I can't think of a spot that they'd look as good as Kitt did.

I think what could make it cheesy is the quality of the light strips

This website sells kits but it looks slightly shady. Also expensive.
