Hey man, sign me up for that CF Bandwagon hotness.
LEDs and Neon aren't my thing on non-show cars, however if you are gonna do um, please please make sure you can't see the lights, I think drilling is a good idea, if u wanna go with lights.

can you show us pics of where your placement and everything is? it's kinda hard to determine a lot of factors w/o seeing whats going on.

i say zip ties homie JK ive got an ES (so no SS) but you still can't see mine go to lowes or home depot and get some Zip Screws or as i like to call em' Tech screws hehe and get a drill and you can have them mounted where noone can see em' in like 5-10 mins depending on how many cigret breaks you take lol just be sure to use those fancy little plastic clamps that they gave you with the kit and no BS use some wire ties to hide the wires

I give you mad respect for what you typed inside those parentheses! That is why I have EVO letters on my trunk! I could give a crap what someone else says about my car! I will be changing it when I get my car repainted though. I'ma put my daughter;s name on it. I keep going back and forth with getting streetglows or not becuase I need to try and get some new rims. Anyway, let me know what you figure out and pass it along to me just in case. Also, keep doin what you do and ***** all the negativity!!!!

I thought about getting white LED underglow by Streetglow. White wouldnt be to crazy but it would have that cool effect at night meets. I think depending on where you could even get away with white. (ive seen it on a jetta at night). I thought it looked great. Any opinions on this? Streetglow has a multi-color led underglow kit for like $270

I had neon's - and between my first car (honda) and my second car (lancer) i went through atleast 4 kits becuase they would either burn out, break, whatever. i dont have any experience with the LED kits they have so i can't comment on them, but i know i wont ever put neons on again.



At least not under the car

Maybe you should have been reading a book instead of putting neon on your tonka truck - moron

Read a book huh? You know I can't argue with you because.....
