I was up till 4 last night searching through every d*** page of the "best looking s13's EVER thread" and everywhere else on google looking for pictures of an s13 with puddle lights and all i found was this vvv



Anybody done this? Anybody have pictures of one? I remember seeing a hatch with a perfect side shot of them. I think it was either maroon or black and the sun was setting (i think). I know a few of you guys *right click, save* alot of pictures so now's the time to put them to use!

Do they make undeglow like in need for speed 2 where it slowly turns on and off? Like dimms almost to black, but slowly gets brighter...

Lol, I always thought that was cool. Idk why, underglow is pretty gay on almost any car.

i always loved that little strip of lights on the side skirts, i think it might be a VIP feature, that some 240 owners adopted. Could be wrong though

Anymore info on this, or maybe even a first hand case?

The purpose of the puddle light is to show any puddles that might be near the door so you don't step in said puddle when getting into the car. It started in the VIP scene but spread throughout everything. Especially to 240s, because, come on, who doesn't like shiny lights?

Dont worry about what people say. Its your car! Honestly i dont give a rats a** if anyone hates these lights. I'd never be happy with my car if i did everything someone elses way. Ill throw these lights on my car whether or not i have a yay or nay from nico. Mechanical advice on the other hand... definitely.

lol it all depends on you. I have a stock body car thats just been lowered and i get compliments on my car from strangers all the time. I even have people at stoplights telling me they like my car. Sure its cool to have other people like your stuff but if you like that wing so much, keep sporting it. I like subtle stuff and nobody here can change my mind.

thanks, but i live in the import hate state Detroit MI so i get people cutin me off givin me the finger in my bone stock coupe for no reason. when i put the wing on my hatch, my god is it bad. thats why i took it off. mainly for my own safety and my cars safety. people would kick my car and pound dents in to it. i mainly from now on going to put the wing on for drift events.

To Each His Own... That's what I say and to hell with what others think, people don't like change the old muscle car guys went threw the same thing when they started so why not us tuners (pardon the term) but if you can't respect others opinions and tastes then how do you expect anyone to respect you and your carso roadboy and OP do what you will but care not of others statements for they has no malice in what you do... plus neon are sweet if done right same with wings you just have to get the design right then your set.
