LED under glow & LED strobes
I was thinking about doing a concealed LED strobe/under glow install on my car, with the strobes being white (duh) and the under glow being 1 million color LED mixing.
The strobes would be hidden in the each grill above the fog lights in front, and hidden behind the middle of the exhaust tips in the rear. and the under glow would be mounted;
-flush with the belly pan in front
-inside the rails on the side skirts
-inside the rear bumper cavity about 3 inches above the tips to avoid heat.
All this would be controlled by a junction box hidden in my dash were the cd changer would be. there would also be a 10 amp in-line fuse, all hooked off of the battery under the hood to make it less complicated.
Let me know what you think!

yea I can see ricer come to mind, but your thinking of the gay techno music strobing flashing under glow and I am looking just to accent the ground under the car. not while driving, solely for looks while parked. I saw it on someones sig pic and it played off well.

You guys think it would look that bad? the strobes, I can now see the ricer and am avoiding them. but even a little tint of blue/white to go with my 8000k AZN DRLs?

Although this isn't for me, I would see this as much more acceptable as it's only on when you open the doors. At least it serves some sort of function...like not stepping in dog **** or a puddle or something.

a drive... Technically, it would need a drive letter after it to make it valid... more like C:\> format c: {the c: would be the main hard disc on most PCs...}
the /dev/null thing is an old linux command, where it would send output from various commands to a file... most likely not to be read...
in other words, it's all technical speak to forget about it...

Please don't, well I personally wouldn't, even if it was a honda civic. My guess is 99.9% of people who see it, will react in the following order:
, 
But hey if you like it go for it, some people like fat chicks..... To each their own!
If you do decide to go for it, which I don't advise, white only! is the way to go. Also dont go all one million led on us either, keep it subtle and just accent the car under the skirts, maybe wire it so stay on 30 seconds after you lock/unlock the vehicle. NO STROBE! NO MUFFLER,WHEEL,GRILL LED!
