Yeah, they are right on the outside of the factory under glow kit. Most people don't know they exist because they don't come wired up from the factory.

Oh, is that what the mystery grey ECU plug on the FRS is for?

Ground effects are what is colloquially referred to as a body kit. Lips, side skirts, rear valences are all examples of ground effects.
He's asking if anyone has copied the red stripe on a lip kit as seen here:

STI kit, not as lame as that photo shows. Have you seen the Nismo cars? It is strategically placed and shaped. It creates an appealing affect to the eye. You either like it or you don't

I just used some 3M Red Pinstriping tape in 1/8". Stuck it on the plastic grille part, not the paint. I was afraid it might start peeling off, but it's held on for a couple weeks now.

Thanks! I would love that carbon fiber mustache, or a cheaper non-CF option.
