not sure if I have any pics, but I changed mine to amber. You run risk of tickets going with other colors, but many luxury cars are using the bluish ones.

Not the best pic, but you get the idea...


Yes, I have a JDM bumper, although I made my own Lisc Plate bulb mounts so they do not stick out as I have seen in other's installs. I like amber because I believe its a legal color, and it looks a little different.

I basically made a "7" shaped aluminum plate that covers the rectangle hole. The lisc plate mounts to this plate and I cut out spots for the lights up top so they are set in instead of bulging out.

Sorry its hard to explain without pics, but you have to be kinda creative since the USDM mount doesn't work.
