pro: your car looks purty and like a space ship

con: You look like a ricer. It's a cop magnet. If your car is lowered and went over bums, you'll break it. Not good in rainy/wet area and might cause an electrical shortage.

Cop Magnet? Luckily I don't drive it much.... and currently fighting a 80 mph in a 65, but if the lawyer fails, it's back to traffic school. One more month and I would have cleared my record.... but then last month.... 70 in a 55 in smallville missiouri of all places.

Get LED kits. A company called Liteglow makes cheaper Streetglow knockoffs and I've had their LED kit for over a year. 2 36" tubes 2 48". You can make the lights do 10 things. good stuff

ground lighting is illegal in some states. Up here in NJ its illegal and its a cop magnet to the fullest. I think its a bullshit law but when you think about lowering the car, then you're pretty much going to break those lights or get em wet.

did you ever hear the one about If a cop pulls you over and asks you if you know why? u tell him cause he wants to sell you tickets to the policemen's ball, and hopefully he'll respond, "policemen don't have balls".

I have a LED kit, and have had no problems iwth it. They glow 7 different colors, flash like 20 different ways but definitely get LEDs, the last much much longer. yes they are illegal in maryland but i have a remote control for mine, so I can just have the remote in my hand and turn them off quickly no tickets so far. but i also live in baltimore city, cops have more important shit to do than pulling me over for neons

led kits have less of a chance of breaking (they are basically unbreakable plastic with diodes in them)
but they are illegal on streets (as are all underbody)

but i dont think underbody lights are rice at all

they do add a certain flare to a car, and i do know people who have put them on temporarily for pictures.

you really need to make a selection based on the color of your car. i know if i were to put LED's on a whit car i'd use blue because it sets off the the colors (think clouds int he sky)

i'd suggest using a color selection chart like you'd find in on a designer website for colors to find colors that set each other off

here are some good ones, remember that most tar or steret is black, so whtie lights are basically pointless cause they just light up under the car.

white/blue
red/violet
dark green/black

man.. i really cant spell..leaving it this way for laughs, lol
