Where do you get the material for the laminate backing?
all i used was some counter top laminate left overs i found at a job i was working at. if you notice it has a nice 'butcher block' pattern that is very stylish. if it were exposed i would have actually got a solid black color

To make the front's blink, you could double the lights and have half hooked up to the signal and half to the lights.
thats kinda what i am thinking. running 4 in the middle and have them hooked to the turn signal wire.

what i am trying to do is constantly have power but the voltage change from parking to blinker to effect the brightness of the LED. now i just have to figure it out.

thanks for all the complements.
