STUCK NEED ADVICE Mass effect armor led help

[Jwalker2266]

I'm working on a Mass Effect Terminus armor build currently. I am trying to make the red out lines on the costume glow, kind of like the effect a tron suit gives off. At first I was thinking along the lines of El wire, but that seemed to bulky and would be hard with all the angles on the suit. I was going to use Led strips to make this happen, but because its such small lines its hard to diffuse and not show any diffusing paper. I also am trying to go for a seamless effect on the armor and not indents where the lines are. I saw this armor on Google images and I love the effect of the lights on the armor. Just cant figure out anyway to do it and it look that good or better . Any advice?

Ahh good old 3M light tape. Same gear they used on tron suits. Do a search here on the RPF, fascinating stuff.

see i was going to use EL tape at first but thought it wouldn't shine bright enough in the day time. that what im worried about and it would be the red EL Tape which would make it even less of a chance of being bright
