alright. I was wrong.

I'll say this.. I don't like underglow... you like, you buy, you install, your car!

I used to have a kit I got back in 97.They were streetglow and I never had any problems out of them. My only thing is if you put some on your car then make sure that you can't see the bulbs. Too many people mount them too low and it just looks trashy. Your suposed to see the glow not the bulbs.

As long as you are going to do this to your car, at least you are going to make it look as good as possible :/ (no wires, etc).

*cough* goodluck *cough*

Its all good. Most people on Nico don't like the whole Neon thing but we all respect hard work and a clean car. Done well it will look good. Just a word of the wise...If you can get a performance part for the same price go for the "GO" rather than the "Show".

I had Blue StreetGlow Gold Series on my Mitsu Eclipse back in the day. Blue shows up probably 2nd best to all of the colors..Also be sure to mount them correctly so that if you car needs to go up on a lift for exhaust work, etc. that the bulbs don't get crushed.

Yeah, I still don't like it at all, but it's your car, keep it clean as possible but do what you like.

I don't mind a good clean neon kit. I dont want one, but then again I would break it as I drive my car pretty hard.
