Kevin, I already have the Streetglow kit, which is in the first post picture. I'll get them installed sometime after October 6th, i'll be pretty busy until then and I'll let you know how they end up. Maybe, I"l the the blue led for the interior

Is @ Home
I say if you really want it, you should install it. If you don't like it uninstall it or not turn it on. I had the Plasmaglow 7 color LED underbody neons on my old car. It was bright, much brighter than the regular neons.

Blake is right, the underglow suits Taylor's car cause its been modded.

At the very least get some wheels and lower the car first. Underglow looks out of place on non-lowered cars.

and do NOT cheap out on the underglow. There's several kits, and you'll be disappointed and spending more money later. Varad is very bright, yet ICELED is best (and what Taylor has). Checkout the forums at Oznium.com, the Flowlighting kits look insane, especially for the price.

+1...I only thought they came on when stationary and when you unlock your car. I guess not...while your at it you could get the spinners that have messages or symbols that light up at night...or "inner glow" neon lights inside your car .

I'm giving you a hard time, but it's your car and do what you want to it...the forum is for advice and opinions and you will get tons of good and/or bad of both kinds. Just get the best of anything that you can afford or wait to save up for a quality product...cheap crap will not last AND will look like sh_t .

Peace.

Depends on how they are wired.

Shake, have you checked your state law for underglow? I personally think its useless to put underglow on a car where you cannot drive with it on, that's the most fun, it attracts so much attention.

BTW white underglow looks fantastic and is the least likely to offend cops.

I agree, but I already have the streetglow kit on hand. I will get rims and other mods after winter

In Michigan it is illegal to have it when driving. I'll probably only have it on rarely since I don't want to get pulled over for that. We are allowed to have it on when the car is parked. So maybe i'll turn it on in smaller streets.

Some badass reps that you will love




So will installing neons void my warranty?

If it does I won't go thru with this mod

No, but the tech will be laughing too hard to be able to complete the repair.
