i would say it could be done but it all depends.

The other day i saw new cobra come up behind me, it had 2 small 6" long red lights behind the front grill closer to the hood. They were at an angle like \/ but more at a 45*. Looked kinda cool becuase of the headlight layot on the new stangs

Just a fun 1.

EDIT: According to another picture like that one. Neon/Underglow adds a 150HP!!

Do they make the car go faster?

If not, then it's just pimpin'.

There are other upgrades that are not about speed, and aren't pimping, like handling and efficientcy, but ground effects lighting is indeed pimping, lol.

I have 2 ry small single LED's under the hood. They add a cool look to the car when the hood is open and only then. it is subtle and adds a nice touch. i will post a pic once the battery is relocated and hooked back up.

When in doubt, don't do it! Neons=Rice!

And they are illegal in alot of states. Not that I would care anyways, but just stating..

They are illegal to have turned on while driving. Not while car is parked.

Alright so I get the idea its rice. Although after reading around it seems as though neon came out in the early 90's and was put on camaros, chevelles, and mustangs of the early years.

But after Fast and the Furious it now equals ricer which no doubt is what people think.

So anywho I know this is sort of changing it but what lights would look nice to add? I was thinking about dressing up my car since I do a lot of Friday night cruising and am looking to add that little extra touch that is subtle and looks good. Spit fire the ideas?
