Thought I would post a few cool pics from the drag strip last night:





I usually run the car with red lights on, but I think the blue looks pretty great too!

Since these are brand new to the market, I wanted to show a video of these rings in action. I connected them into my NightOwl system and they work perfectly! They install like the other LEd halo rings out there, but I used a diffuser from SuperBrightLEDs to get the diffused look like the factory halos. When they are off you can't even tell they are there, and when they are on they match the factory halos perfectly.

I had been on the hunt for a smooth RGB light source (no individual SMD LED dots for me) for the DRL's and I finally found it!
Damn, and I just got my DRLs back together. Wish I would of know about this before I installed my Oracle SMDs. Not a fan of the dotted leds either.

It's hard to believe that it was 2 years ago today (4/6/12) that I took delivery of my ZL1! It's been a great ride so far and I have had a lot of fun and met a ton of great people since that day. These pics are in my first post in this thread, but I thought I would post up some pics of the day I got it.

My first time seeing it-



My first turn of the key-



It's all mine-

I've never had an issue with them, but I did switch the controller to NightOwl about a year ago. The LEDs themselves are still from the JDP kit and I haven't had any problems.

Had a few small changes done this week. First, I added red accents to the hash marks in my NS-1 stripes. These are most likely temporary, but I thought it would be something a little different. NExt, I needed to get the stripes installed on my new carbon fiber spoiler, so I had the entire trunk redone so they would match perfectly. For a little change, I extended them to the edge of the trunk. I think they look great since it gives the look that they run under the spoiler, which they actually don't. While the car was at Night Shades, I had clear bra installed on the entire front bumper, headlights, the mirrors, and in front and behind the rear wheels.

Here's a few pics:

Just swapped my original aluminum paddle shifters from Vitesse Motorsports to their new black anodized version. It definitely gives a much better look with the red and black interior of the car.

Here is a pic:
