I headed to the Popular Mechanics Booth and was very happy to find a 2011 Ford Mustang with not two, but four LED Daytime Running Lights. Maybe this is the time to tell you that Ford announced the 2013 ‘Stang and LED technology comes within standard package. Actually, it was about time manufacturers to include LED, but ain’t it great that Popular Mechanics really did something impressive, thinking ahead of time – they took two pairs of Brabus Style 5-LED lamps and turned them into a pair of 10-LED lamps on each side.

The result is obvious – the car looks definitely more stylish, lower and wider. Installing the LED Daytime Running Lights in set of two seems to be the right thing to do, just because the openings in the front bumper are bigger for better airflow and thinner DRL lamps just won’t look good. And what’s more, these bad boys could be used as fog lights – the amount of light they produce is enormously bright, which makes them perfect for places with reduced visibility.

As it turned out, this LED automotive lightning accessory is very popular in this year’s SEMA show cars. I saw it installed on that Fiat 500 at the Chrysler FIAT Booth, and on one more car, that will be unveiled in another report, so stay tuned. In meantime, take a look at JDM Toys online store and search for Xenon White Euro Mercedes Brabus Style 5-Light LED DRL Kit. This kit includes a set of two 5-LED lamps, which look just like the Mercedes-Benz Brabus Style DRL and can be easily mounted for any cars, SUVs or trucks in between the bumper grill, or below the bumper. The last time I checked, there was a huge discount, so hurry up!

The iconic 2011 Ford Mustang is a real proof for a symbiosis between classic muscle car and new age modern technology. And while waiting for the next SEMA 2011 fancy lightning accessories reports, you can take a good look at the featured LED Daytime Running Lights and consider giving your car a new sleek LED look.

Jotech JB2 Motorsports presented Stage 4 Nissan GT-R on this year’s SEMA Show, and as you will see, these guys really pay attention to the details. It seems that LED License Plate Lights are very trendy these days, and I found them installed on this lambo green 942 HP GT-R show car. As you see, these LED bulbs are very bright – they are clearly visible in daytime and the xenon white color gives a nice look to this ride.

Many other tuners presented powerful and stylish performance cars, but Jotech JB2 Motorsports really made an impression with these elegant LED License Plate Lights. And as it turned out, that wasn’t everything – the Texas tuner used the same 5-SMD JB2 168 LED bulbs for the parking lights, too. Such combination is really awesome, as it gives the car that small touch of style, which takes the whole vehicle one level up.

Having Stage 4 Nissan GT-R tuned by Jotech JB2 Motorsports is not the most likely thing to happen to me, but I don’t need the extensive tuning knowledge and capabilities of a world-class tuner like Kenny Tran with his 14 years of racing and tuning experience to get myself a pair of 5-SMD JB2 168 LED bulbs. The same top-quality LED product can be found at JDM Toy store. These bulbs are perfect for car interior lights, door courtesy lights, license plate lights, parking lights or backup reverse lights.

One thing is for sure – Jotech JB2 Motorsport is a world-class tuner shop, which works with top-quality products and when these guys think that some modification is necessary, they install it. This also applies to the presented performance show car Nissan GT-R. I just gave you a hint how to get yourself a pair of JB2 168 LED bulbs for your ride.

Remember that Scion IQ I wrote about last time? Well, I just can’t wait to tell you about its fancy Daytime Running Lights – they look like tiny shining diamonds! You know how happy women become when they see their best friends, huh? I become more than happy when I see some nice quality automotive lighting products in action. Unfortunately the guys at the Scion Booth switched on the lights only for a while and I couldn’t take a good picture, but will tell you more about this accessory and what’s more – how to get the same great-looking product at very affordable price.

Following the latest trends in the automotive industry, tuners and manufacturers try to offer quality modern-looking products, and this is where the LED technology comes. The fellows, who prepared the Scion IQ for this year’s SEMA Show, have very modern vision – such cool 9 LED DRL Lamps are very similar to the ones found in some luxury Audi models. I am sorry you can’t see them in action, but I can assure you they have very powerful output and are capable of emitting very bright Xenon White light. These qualities motivated me to find the same cool-looking product on the Internet.

Here I come to the part with a hint how to get the same 9 LED DRL kit for your car. All you have to do is to visit JDM Toys store and look for these eye-catching Audi A6 Style High Power 9 LED DRL lamps. Actually, I think there was even a 10% discount on this universal fit quality product. However, if I judge by the sleek look of that graphite steel Scion IQ, these Daytime Running Lights will become a total hit among car tuners and manufactures.

The Scion Booth and their smoking hot Scion IQ show car, equipped with Black Headlight Tint kit, was definitely one of the many SEMA 2011 Highlights. I was very impressed with the whole concept and was very determined to write an article about this beautiful tiny vehicle. Some of you may have never heard about this car – though the Scion IQ is new to the U.S., it’s more than familiar to the rest of the world (Japan for example). Other countries have had micro-cars for years; Toyota is just the latest manufacturer to bring them to the States.

Basically, that’s the long story short of Scion IQ. Now, let’s take you back to this particular show car: while I was walking around the vehicle, admiring the awesome graphite paintjob and taking down notes, I couldn’t miss the Black Headlight Tint and the Smoked Taillight accessories. I just have no words to describe the fantastic combination of graphite steel paintjob with such shaded elements – you have to see it, to believe it! Everything is perfect, nothing less, nothing more – and you have to admit the intelligent design makes this car look like a cyborg from the future.

I was amazed by those fancy automotive lighting accessories and made a little research how to give my car the same cool look. Then I checked the iJDMToy’s Online Store and found a self adhesive matte Black Out Smoke Tail Light Vinyl Film, which could be applied to headlights as well. This is a top quality product, which will get you 20% dark smoke black-out effect. Simply apply this high quality black-out vinyl sheet to any smooth surface and cut off the edge. It will not damage your lamp nor leave any residual later when you remove it.

After all, only the tuner knows exactly what kind of accessories are installed on this fancy Scion IQ, but you can get the same Black Headlight Tint and Smoked Taillight effects for less money with iJDMToy.
