I definitely agree with this. I have considered getting one for my car.

Just drill holes if you want parking lights.Either way you go get it from http://www.cobranda.com/ hes not the cheapest but his parts fit the best i have seen so far.

So you don't want functioning turn signals?

I wondered this too. When I first saw the holes in the R model valance from the very start I planned to use them as turn signals rather than brake ducts.

Can't you get in some sort of legal trouble for not having front turn signals?

Yes. If the car came factory with them, you have to have them.

So you're saying even if you swap to an R Model you have to put turn signals on them? Or if it came factory with the R Model THEN you have to have turn signals?

Probably depends on state. California law:
Required Lamps
# Trucks, semitrailers, buses, and passenger vehicles manufactured and registered on or after January 1, 1958 must be equipped with a lamp turn signal. The law also applies to motorcycles manufactured after January 1, 1973.

Fronts have to be white or amber and rear have to be amber or red.
