White LED Turn Signal
Sorry, this is the only decent picture I have of the LED turn signals. It's a custom base for the LEDs made to fit the OEM connector.

Yeah, sorry I won't know for a couple of weeks when the car gets out of the paint booth. OSS made them to fit in the OEM connector so I'm not sure if you can buy them anywhere. I just showed him this post and he went from there...

Anyone here done LED front turn signals?

Okay, stopped by the body shop (Collision Co. in Roswell, GA) check on progress and I must say that it's looking pretty good. They've got the first coat of primer on and only need to fill some minor holes and imperfections before the second coat then maybe paint late next week.

I also took a few pictures of the back side of the bumper so you can see where the bonding agent was used. There will be more bonding agent added to the bumper before final paint, but it gives you an idea of where the cut lines were between the two pieces. Notice that the tow hook door had to be removed and grafted back into the two halves since it fell right on one of the seam lines. More to come soon...
