Thanks Dhaya.

I also need all your guidance, after it is dusted and run in the traffic, the front calipers look black(due to heat), how to clean them ?

I think the front calipers must be looking black because of brake dust. Is it possible to clean them without removing the wheels? I don't think so , so better leave it.

Oh wow! The led looks cool. Can you tell us where exactly the leds are pasted? Also post the pic of front tyre too; if those have leds too...

How about painting the brake calipers red or yellow or blue or orange? It will be nice if someone can do a PS which will give a clear image.
