Looking for LED daytime running lights for 996 turbo

I'm wondering who makes some LED daytime lights for my 996 turbo? Similar looking to the 997's. Can they be added to my front bumper or do I need a whole new setup?

Cheers

Bump, same question. Preferably reasonably priced, not the 1,500$ ones

Yeah the $1600.00 ones are what I had in mind. They look pretty sick! There must be a bumper out there one can buy with them already installed.....Would be nice

NR automotive makes a GT Street Techart front spoiler with the OEM Porsche Turbo LEDs integrated.
Website says 2,195$, but I don't think that includes the LEDs. Could always be sourced from Suncoast at a cheaper price though.

It's tough to make it look right on a reasonable budget so I just upgraded my parking lights to LED. (and all exterior lights)

My LEDs aren't setup for DRL but I'm sure you can find a power source needed for DRL. However - for a total of ~$35 its cheap/fun bonding time w/ the Porsche.

I'm having these LEDS put into the inner portion of my lower combi lights. Should be done later this week.

No one has said anything about the stock 997 LEDs. Surely they must be available from a dealer. I have checked the online parts dealers but have not been able to get a price on those particular lights. Does anyone know what they go for and where to get them?
