I like the plastic backing idea on the strip. Good job.

tell you what....maybe really small fibre optics fanned out from the bottom light might make it serious. lay them into those groove lines on the bottom of that fixture and voila...even more hotness!

Looks Great Man. Nice Work!!!
Can you go into a little more detail as to how you did the LED's in the Clearance strips? Are they just a couple of LED's pointing down the Clearance strip from the top?

Like Pete, I am curious to see how the LED's around the projector bezel hold up to the heat. On my first 06 headlight mod the LED's I mounted above the Projectors stopped working due to the high heat and they weren't nearly as close to the HID's as yours...

thanks man.

yeah a few LEDs are point down from the top to get that fade down look. Also, I had to make a custom housing for the led light to travel down the clearance.

so far i've driven with the lights 7 hours straight with no problems. the projectors doesn't shine the light directly at the LEDs so the heat doesn't seem that intense. Plus i higher resistors to make the LEDs a little more dim so it wouldn't run as hot..

also i'm thinking your LEDs are closer to the HID bulbs and projector housing so that would give off more heat.... you could always put a heat shield behind the leds of yours.
