Alright so I put a neon kit in my engine bay. I think it looks pretty damn badass but that's just me. I'm sure it's a mixed bag of opinions about glow on a "muscle" car but all opinions are welcome. But the nitrous purge out of the scoops with the neon looks so awesome.

There's also a video in my blog that has a short clip where you can see the glow from underhood. Link in my sig, check it out.

well, some points for your ingenuity, but imo, certain things belong to certain genres - neon on a stang is like wearing a tuxedo shirt with sweatpants: both have their appropriate place, but together they don't mix well ;)

I love when people assume that they are the authority on what's "gay" or not. Very mature.
I'm just glad to know that if I ever did light up my car with just one color. I'd be ok. Whew!!:D

That being said, it's an interesting mod, just not for me. Not a fan of street racing either.

I like it, looks awesome, but your gonna get a ticket for having that blue neon, and it also cant be red.

edit: Love the hood, thats the i've been wanting for a long time.

Actually, if I were insecure about my sexuality, I'd be going around calling anything different gay.
Wait a minute, didn't someone just do that? :eek:

If it was one constant color, with no strobing, it would look DECENT. The strobing turns me off.

One constant color would be ok but the strobing has got to go. IMO

ya man i dont know about the strobin part but u asked for everyones opinion so there it is.. haha i had a dang mazda b2500(pretty much a ranger)with the blue lights runnin underneath (dont ask i was young) but i never got pulled over for having the blue lights... so u should be alright unless there are some nasty cops out your way.. btw u gotta nice ride.. but muscle carwith neonaccents doesnt sound like it should go in the same sentence.. kinda like the new 08's with the littleillumination kit under the dash.. looks good but i wouldnt want it in my car.. think its for chicks maybe..im pretty sure they dont come in the bullitts cuz thats a real car right there

Can't be red and can't be blue. Make it green if you have to put it on there.

Vehicle codes forbid FORWARD FACING red or blue lights.
It is called impersonating an emergency vehicle.

Ya dude I dont like it strobing. One solid color would be alright.

Kinda ricey, but definetly unique compared to typical underbody neons. I'm not sure exactly what I think about them, I do like they way they look.

+1 to the solid color, and to the fact that it is probably illegal in your state. Other than that, looks good bro.

I agree, the strobing light looks dumb. But I think the solid blue looks sweet. Can you keep it just one color?

Hey thanks guys! But yeah, it has a bunch of different patterns as well as 15 solid colors I can set it on.

I have more videos somewhere I just can't find them. I found a video a guy posted and it has my car in it a few times. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3MB0BCDiXog

i think that looks badass, and in tennessee blue is not illegal as long as its not flashing...but like in virginia all colors are illegal even if its the middle of the day and they are not turned on, (i know a friend who got a ticket at 3 pm because they were installed on his car, but it got dismissed in court)

Geez!
All this "Gay" talk... "warehouse district", "drag strip"...

Lets keep the homo stuff in your bedrooms guys, we're not interested in how you swing!

All these authorities on what's gay can only mean one thing.
