Thanks very much for the good feedback. :) That makes me think of doing a small series of it. But please don't fix me on this because it still needs one or two small changes which will be done within the next weeks.

OH Yeah! Can I get mine to say "STOP BITCH!"
 
Impressive and creative. I agree, you should go with Hugh's idea and enhance them with the Backoff XP mod.

I'm confused though. Do you have to remove the original letters from the center piece to create this modification or did you fit in the leds to light up behind the letters? I have imagined about this same idea, but for a different car. The problem is I have no knowledge of how to create something like this. Will a write-up be available after the project is complete?

Once you open up the center piece the NSX letters are just stickers which peel right off.

Anyone who wants to could purchase that option on their own volution directly from the source and use it to flash either their current brake light in the tail & wing &/or the new centre light - can be done collectively or individually, up to the user.
There should be no requirement to change anything in the NSX centre light module to utilize this feature if anyone chooses to install that themselves.

There are no 'original letters' (vinyl decal) left on the lens if that's what you mean (besides - it doesn't say NSX as OEM) - the image is all done by the LEDs. The original 'Acura' decal from inside the lens would be removed.

As per above, the standard lens has 'ACURA" not NSX although many have modified to change the OEM decal to the custom NSX version decal.

We could tell you but then we'd have to shoot you. :biggrin:
If the http://www.hidplanet.com/forums/ site ever comes back up (the server goes down frequently) you can get general tips in the LED forum on how to do this kind of project there.

Thanks, yes, plenty of skills, time and at least fun went into it. We'll decide on the GB in a few weeks after we did a second unit.
