It seems to work well! What is your paint code number and noun? (All paints today are water based).

Default Paint Code

No where on car or on original order. Bodyshop had to Scan and then mix a little Silver, a liitle Blue. The water based paint was off by 30%.

Default LED's Lights...

Is this all plug and play? Will the LED's work as well? Can you take some pics of the lights/LED's install and what parts are needed if any.

Thank you,

John

The paint number should be inside the fuel filler cap. Or on the door. My PTS color name never appeared on my order form either--but discovered the number on the filler cap later.

Default Turn signals....

What i meant is the turn signals. I read a lot of forums on this and it seems like there's some other modules involved in order to get the turn signals to work. Could you provide the part numbers of the modules once you get this to work? And was the turbo bumper a direct bold on or did you have to modify anything? What about the fog lights were those plug and play?

Thank you,

John

Default TT bumper

The TT bumper fits easily on my widebody w/o modifications. The fogs are plug ins. The fellow connecting the LEDs tomorrow has already done a few w/o expensive OE part.

Default Turn signals.

Will you or him do a write up and perhaps what's involved to get the turn signals to work.

Let me know I wouldn't mind paying him for this. Send me a pm if he's willing to do this.

Thank you,

John

Default LEDs

after the dealer reset computer for LEDs, I went to my car stereo guy to show others work w resistors or capicitors. After reading those papers, he ripped them up saying they may have a fire or blow some wiring. In less then 2 hrs, he spliced the existing wires and gave me 3 choices how the LEDs should work. All the lights come on with car and the flashers blink the LEDS. I would leave all electrical work to somebody who knows what theyre doing.
