Turn signal relocation

Would this be legal? I need to free up the entire section where the foglights/turn signals go.

I thought I might be able to have an orange glow around the area where the lights used to be.. have a look.

BTW: whomever owns this car has a NICE ride.

Hmmm...I would think that would be illegal. Considering that most peopel wouldnt know if you was going left or right cause they'd be seeing it blinking in the middle O_o Also wouldnt that block the ram air ducts?

The ram air ducts wouldn't be usefull anyway. I need the bumper scoops to be free flowing because that is where the intercoolers will sit. The intake for the turbo goes down through the pan right next to the charcoal canister... which it where I have my TB plumbed to currently.

Is there some sort of regulation size turn signal? Perhaps I can put a smaller version in the standard place.

Why dont you just move the turn signals down into the groundfx. That way it still looks ok, is still legal, and you keep the ram air.

The nose is where the signals are originally. I need them out of that area to aid flow to the intercoolers. The ramair nostral idea was the first thing that came to mind. Bottom line, I need to have as much air as possible getting to the intercooler from the bumper.

The orange glow section would be instead of the nostral idea... I forgot to mention that part.
