No neon lights in the future. Glad you stop by to view my post and instead of hitting the back space button you refer to my ride as a ghetto (correct spelling) blast. Why don't you get some coffee and have a nice day issues deluxe

Thanks for the night time shot. I think the emblem looks cool. I don't know if I want it on my car. I'd love to see one in person.

I'm not digging the light over the exhaust though. A little too goofy, like the neon undercarriage lights you see in the import crowd.

IMHO

Ignore the haters, I think it's a very cool mod. I'd probably add a switch to turn it on/off as needed. I think I could make one of these myself, just laser cut acrylic, bevel and flame polish the edges and countersink an LED in the center. Probably sell these for about $100 or so. cost of materials should be under $5.

First off I love it. I have a jetstream blue GS vert. I did the license plate bulbs blue plus put a frame in blue lighting on and it motions around. I also did the underneath car light kit in blue. I def want to get this. Do they do the front and the waterfall also ? What lighting is by your exhaust ? My mom always taught me if you don't have something nice to say don't say anything !

It would be nice to turn it on and off. Im thinking that it is probably tied into the running lights.


I like it though.

I like it. I think it's tastefully done and not over the top. I think it's worth $100 but not $200.

I love the lights, but I'm not sure it's legal for the road. I knew Texas has (I'm sure most states have) some vehicle driving codes for lighting. Might want to double check with a local LEO before taking that out driving

http://www.statutes.legis.state.tx.u...47.htm#547.305

Sec. 547.303. COLOR REQUIREMENTS. (a) Unless expressly provided otherwise, a lighting device or reflector mounted on the rear of a vehicle must be or reflect red.

(b) A signaling device mounted on the rear of a vehicle may be red, amber, or yellow.

http://www.txdps.state.tx.us/psb/new...lue_lights.htm
In recent weeks we have experienced an increase in telephone calls concerning warning lights on security vehicles. The Private Security Act does not address this issue, however, reference is made to the Texas Transportation Code. Section 547.305, restrictions on use of lights which states:

a.a motor vehicle lamp or illuminating device, other than a headlamp, stop lamp, auxiliary lamp, turn signal lamp, or emergency vehicle or school bus warning lamp, that projects a beam with an intensity brighter than 300 candlepower shall be directed so that no part of the high-intensity portion of the beam strikes the roadway at a distance of more than 75 feet from the vehicle.
b.except as expressly authorized by law, a person may not operate or move equipment or a vehicle, other than a police vehicle with a lamp or device that displays a red light visible from directly in front of the center of the equipment or vehicle.
c.a person may not operate a motor vehicle equipped with a red, white, or blue beacon, flashing, or alternating lights unless the equipment is:
1.used as specifically authorized by this chapter; or
2.a running lamp, tail lamp, backup lamp, or turn signal lamp that is used as authorized by law.

pretty cool. I would think here in California one would get pulled over by a LEO since it is blue.

I do like the idea about something like that on the waterfall.
