Tube color won't matter because you won't be using it. Also I don't think there's enough space for the tube to go in there as well. There's no need for it anyway.

I followed this and they turned out pretty nice. I still have to buff the clear coat to a smooth shine, but I need to let the paint fully cure.

Yes you can ghost the strip.... Paint several base coats with the strip masked off. Then unmask the entire sidemarker and hit it with a couple light base coats. Clear and No visible strip unless the leds are ON.

About 140 for promoter, primer, base and clear/hardner but I had to have enough to paint my ZL1 bumper and diffuser.

Automotivetouchup.com does a spot on SGM as well! I was looking around ar different LEDs and came across these little guys. Substantially cheaper and they I've always had excellent luck with their product.
http://www.oznium.com/thin-led-tube Would just need to trim them down.
