LED Addition to front of car

What do you guys think. I'm going to wire in five Superflux 4 White LED per side on the bottom right and bottom left corners of the front fascia (see picture for photoshop simulation). I already have the chips prewired and waterproofed to work on the car. I would drill holes in those plastic plates that are down there and put the LED's in.

Apologies in advance for the terrible photoshop job. it took me like 40 seconds lol. but you get the idea.

I am trying the same thing, ultimately to manufacture with 9 LEDs per side for a sport. Note that drilling these plastic inlets is NOT easy due to the grid pattern on the outside. It likely requires a drill press and then something to smooth out the grill patterns so the LEDs can be inserted and stay flush...there are pic in my other thread on this.
