LED TLs: hidden/smooth/custom-made

Not for sale-just for show...
This is one of my customer's trucks. They built their own LED TLs. Actually they used existing LED TLs found at a big rig truck store...mounted them inside/behind the stock lens and used some red clear lucite cutouts for them to show through. The cool thing is there are no major modifications done to the body, so pretty simple to do.
What do you think?

Re: LED TLs: hidden/smooth/custom-made

My buddy did the same thing on his F*#D truck. He used those same LED's but cut an oval and used plexus (plastic cement) to attach them. He did this a few years ago and they still work fine.
