Default I have to make ... lighting on an 1/10th buggy

We will be competiting in the 24h race at Charleroi.
Part of the race will be driven in dimmed conditions and all teams will have to provide their car with some form of lights, so that they can locate their car, but also so to be able to see the track.

ANyone ideas on how to tackle this?
I have allready an idea of my own, but all ideas are welcome

You could make some I did.

Buy some Utra bright LED's

Use the followinf calculator to figure out the correct resistor size.
