Ivory has neon?!?! what???

yup its true, my car glows at night.
For a recent car show i purchased some underglow lights, (multi color...12 colors i believe), along with some Strobes in all four wheel wells, and strobes in the hood vents of my CF hood. I turned the strobes on constant glow so that they would show up well in the time exposure pictures. When i do turn them on, they are usually strobing.

Yes, it is illegal for me to drive with the strobes on, but i can drive around with any color that is not cop related (purple, yellow, green etc.)

I don't usually drive with them on, its usually for a simple..."oh and i also have this on my car" type of situation. You can hate all you want, but i think they are very cool :D

edit: sorry to all you 56k people, im sure your comp just went Kablooeee!

The chassis underglow is well, yeah.

I actually like the lights in the hood vents. Not bad.

The lights in your wheel wells just accentuate how bad you need a drop.

Neons showing through vents looks pretty decent.

Did you replace LED's for instrument cluster? Looks like a brighter blue glow. I would love to do this if possible.

shouldnt the wheel well ones show through your rims? they're just showing off your gap and your tires. its whatever tho if youre doin it for shows. this type of stuff gets attention. so be it. hood looks cool.

I actually think the lights in the vents are pretty cool. But i'm not a big fan of the other lights.
