    Damn, seems like everyone is getting bumpers on. It's making me all kinds of jelly. Oh well, suspension comes first for me. Maybe next year, unless Brute-Force does another group buy on that front hybrid, then I think I won't have a choice...

    That should be relatively easy. You could mount a reflective surface a couple inches behind the letters and mount some LEDs or some other light source facing that so the light is reflected off of it thereby backlighting the letters. :thumbsup:

    I just used my entire radiator as the reflective surface. :D

    mine came with them they'r just allen head bolts. Stainess steel I believe. The ones they sent were way long you can probably go to a Fastenal or somewhere and get some shorter ones. Lights work great back there though

    It might be possible to cut some thin electro-luminescent material into letters that could go over top of the existing letters. That might mean drilling into the $300 + grille insert to hide the wires though. :eek:

    I want the illumination similar the Mercedes and the level of the lighting. As you can see: not too bright and not too dim. It doesn't over power the illumination of the headlights :thumbsup:
