The only way ive seen anything neon used on a car tastefully is on ASG14's car (Adam).

He has them under the front two seats, so when a passenger enters the back seats, it lights up the floor for them, etc.


other than that, its just a bit tacky these days, that stuff was cool back in 2000....=\

Yea.....that kinda stuff had its time. It was cool in the 90's.

I've still seen a couple cars that pulled it off well.....but they werent driving with them on. It looked decent when they were sitting at a car show.

i remember when you first joined SG you brought up the underglow idea and everyone already voiced their opinions on it. you already know what the general consensus is. so do it or don't. but since you already have it, might as well. no need to wait around asking to be or not to be.

if you do it use l.e.d. lights rather then neon tubes. varad had some nice multicolor kits. thats what we use where i work.

I have them. As shown in the sig. I wouldn't ever do underbody again even though i have a seven color LED underbody it gets old. The interior is where I love them as they sit right now they light up both front and rear floorboard.

UNDERGLOW

Postby jimmm » Tue Apr 21, 2009 12:44 am

To each his own. Why ask permission to be yourself? If it's what you want to do, then do it. If it works, others will imitate. If it doesn't, they won't. Funny thing about doing something different, though, is that when you think it's an original idea, somebody else has already thought about it and/or has already done it. Jimmm

Oh im going to do them.lol.I have always wanted them so im going to.I was just going to ask a few questions about it.Since the side tubs will stick out some which is illegal i was going to try to find something that could extend on my side skirts(Well not actually side skirts underneath them) and i was going to ask for a few ideas.And also for installing them on the front end my car has a plastic piece to keep stuff from getting in motor and radiator i suppose?I was going to cut that in some way i could keep it and put my under glow on still.
