Glowing Exhaust
Hey, I was talking to my dad about my RSX and he saw the screw-on exhaust pipe and asked me if I thought it would be possible to drill through the exhaust ipie and run an orange LED through it and splice it into the Comand Logic Lights. I thought this would be ultra cool especially if it got brighter when you hit the gas like the headlights do!!! Well tell me what you guys think and tell me if you actually do it....Bad Company esspecially.

This would probably work. But you'll need a couple of light kits to accomplish and an orange LED.

Glowing Exhaust
Yea I know where to get orange LEDs and thanks to Bad Companies walkthrough on how to splice the lights together, I think it could be done rather easily

Actually quite a few. It's all the rage with the lil rice rocketeers.

 KingCobra obviously hasn't watched a whole lot of races at night where you see the rear end of a car (especially Rally Cars) as it comes to a turn and has to hit the brakes...there are bursts of small flames being shot out the tail pipe...try and respond to somethnig that you know a little about!

hmmm what about a capacitator of some sort so it sucks in power and then once it reachs a certain amount of power it sends it to the LEDs i think that's what they do :shrug: i'm not really that sure about electronics.
