What age group do you want to answer that? The 30 plus crowd will probably all tell you that you are wasting you money. The younger crowd, I don't know.

Neons are teh rice.

I probably thought they were cool a couple years ago (damn you F&F), but seriously, you car will loose so much class if you put neons on it. Save up for some nice wheels if you want to make it look better then your friends' cars. A set of HIDs and nice wheels will make your car look like it's at least newer than 2000. That's my opinion, anyway.

neons are cool their right next to butterfly doors but only if ur playing need for speed underground in my opinion jus save ur money for sumthing else

Post by **naladude911** » Sun Jan 20, 2008 6:47 am

ok. ya i agree. Il probably have enough $$$ for rims by September. I really want HID's, but I have DRLs and they wont work with HIDS, and I dont know how to disable them

Post by **nkawall** » Sun Jan 20, 2008 8:16 am

its not alot..all u really need is to disconnect the drl module then they work as if they never had drl

Post by **liquidJ30** » Sun Jan 20, 2008 8:23 am

I got the LED multi color ones when I was 16 and actually liked them alot. The older I got the less I turned them on but if thats something you're interested in then I would go with the LED's over the neon ones. I had these plus blue strobes in the front and back of my J. So every now and then I'd pull over my friends/family with the red white and blue flashing underlights n strobes,(very illegal!) or just turn on the playboy pink for the ladies... lol ya I know looking back now that may seem pretty retarded but it was fun, I got a lot of compliments, and it appealed to my age group. but yes it is VERY RICE and I wouldn't be caught dead with them on my Acura CLs. sorry for the rant.

Post by **naladude911** » Sun Jan 20, 2008 9:42 am

Should I just take out teh fuse, or just disconnect the DRL module? Il post pics, and u decide

Post by **nkawall** » Sun Jan 20, 2008 8:32 pm

yeah take out the module itself...dont take it out ,, just remove the two connections on the bottom of it and leave it there...another thing..u said u cant have hid cuz u hav drl...everycar in canada has drl..its the law in ontario...u must have it...so just be advised now that u will get a ticket if a cop wants to be an ******* and notices that they dont run during daytime driving

Perfect logic.

In the end, you're going to get what you want to get anyway.

That doesn't matter since I live in the US now, the car was bought in Canada. Ok, Il post pics later of what to disconnect

Only under car glow kit I would EVER add to a J30 is one that lights up when a door is opened.

Keeps up with the classy J image me thinx.

Post by **StevieRaySTL** » Mon Jan 21, 2008 5:55 pm

-- Ugh. Don't do it. Well maybe if you had a hot pink jeep wrangler, no seriously, save up for rims, otherwise leave well enough alone. Also, the factory projectors on yhe J are effin sweet, I wouldn't feel it necessary to fool with them. Now go study for your driver's liscense test, j/k. Is it true that there's more rules to getting one now?

Post by **naladude911** » Tue Jan 22, 2008 7:46 am

not really. I get my permit in May when im 16, and I can drive with someone over 21 till 9:00 PM, except on parkways. Then I can take drivers ed at school, and apply for my junior license, which i can drive by myself till around 9:00 PM, then I get my senior license when im 17, and can drive anywear (excpet new york city)

Post by **StevieRaySTL** » Tue Jan 22, 2008 10:27 am

-- Yeah that's what I meant by more rules, that sux. When I got mine, which was only ten years ago, you could take a written test to get a permit at 15 & 1/2, which required an adult to be in the car w/ you, no time restrictions. Then when you were 16, if you passed the test you were completely legal to drive anywhere alone, and curfew was never enforced unless you were on foot. My first liscence was a flimsy paper one, I'm pretty sure it said 120lbs. lol. BTW--Thats just plain weird about not being able to drive into NYC.

ya, they dont want "hoodlums" lol. What do you think of this? They dont have any darker shades. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...66579

Looks like cheap plastic to me.

Yeah dude, you're focusing too much on adding something to your car, it's going to end up looking like you just threw a bunch of **** on there with no planning. Plan your mods carefully, save up money, get nice, classy looking stuff, and be proud of it.

Think less Fast & Furious and more...Grey Poupon? I dunno. Something like that.

Post by **93jdirty'** » Tue Jan 22, 2008 7:42 pm

Im young like you also (18) i would stay away from neons. there not legal, and not that cool on a J. Get some glow gauges and a nice stereo

Post by **naladude911** » Wed Jan 23, 2008 5:27 am

ya i agree. i got the stereo, and getting installed in may when the car is lisenced. Then, il save for some rims( what do you think, black with chrome lip, or chrome with lip?). Im going to get a black steering wheel cover off ebay, it looks nice.

Post by **StevieRaySTL** » Wed Jan 23, 2008 8:04 am

-- Unless your wheel is tore up, why buy a cover? As far as rims, don't go too big, 17s or 18s tops.

Post by **naladude911** » Wed Jan 23, 2008 9:00 am

Because the cover looks better then worn out faded leather........ Its just new leather over old leather. Also, I was going to go with 19's. Why is the max 18?

Post by **StevieRaySTL** » Wed Jan 23, 2008 11:04 am

-- Yes, but does it feel better? It's just my preference but I dont like the feel of something inbetween the steering wheel and my greasy mitt. Bigger than 18 inch rims and you are in 'I'm trying too hard/wannabe baller' territory. I think the beltline on the J is too low to look right with anything over an 18".

Every time I see a car with gihugic wheels I wanna throw up.We have alot here in the DFW area.

Guess it makes oil changes easier !!! Nuk Nuk.

Post by **naladude911** » Wed Jan 23, 2008 11:36 am

Plus it will ride like crap, tires will cost more, transmission will wear quicker, acceleration will be slower, mpg will suffer, etc.

That's what I love about the J30t wheels, they only weigh like 12 lbs each.

Post by **naladude911** » Wed Jan 23, 2008 12:51 pm

so what about those rims i posted? Il only use the nice rims in the summer, and switch to my stock ones in the winter.
