Option 1 - It's 2008. Neons are out.

Option 2 - There was a brand that had 6 tubes (2 on the sides, 1 up front, 1 in the rear) and they worked well. Anymore, I think they use LEDs.

Neons? C'mon man, the evo x is not a ricer car. Evo's, Sti's, supra's, skyline's, and rx 7's need to be treated with respect. If you want to put neons on a car, then go buy a civic.

Neons are alright to be honest I use to think the same way but if they are color matched real well they look absolutely great on show cars...the just bring out the car in no pun intended a better light.

I say as long as he doesnt think the car is uber faster with them on more power to him.

Neons and LED's are iffy to me. But if you pay the money for the car, you can do whatever the hell you want to it IMO.

I'm sure there will be examples of very ricey Evo's, hard core Evo's, super custom Evo's, OEM Aero Evo's, and also many stock Evo's. To each their own!

well it not like im installing a chrome blower with some chinese lettering haha. i think the GG paint with some deep red underglow would look good in a B-Boy stance

and anyone who would make fun of a x just with a glo kit is probably just mad because they drive a honda imo haha

Well at least he didn't ask for color match Honda emblems
And Vtec and Type R sticks to go along with the glows sticks.

I agree, on the right setup they can look really nice (for show use only), but it's just so pase anymore.

I used to love neons, had them on all my cars, but the council in my area leave shit road surfaces, which means a new neon tube every time i goto my parents place, as they always have loose stones everywhere! It's not that i dont like neons, cos i do, its just not practical for my use!

Neons and chinese letterings are too ricey IMO. I also get offended when people stick random chinese words on their cars...or I laugh at them. Its like those people who get chinese tattoos that dosen't make sense at all.

I agree, What is with the chinese lettering decals? Are they the 21st century revamped 'go faster' stripes?

Lol.. heard a comedian talking about "I wonder if there's Japanese girls with 'HAPPY' tattooed on their neck in English." :bowlol:

On topic, red neons on a dropped GG Evo X would cool IMO, but I wouldn't go hauling ass down the highway with that crap on, you're begging to get pulled over.

I'd pretty much only do it if I were interested in placing my car in a show of some sort.

IMO you need to do A LOT of power mods before you even consider putting under glow on. Not very many people respect cars with under glow, but you can't argue with an 11-second car with under glow. Show cars are for show. They will be laughed at on the street.

vtec and gt-r stickers add the most.

haha I used to work at advanced auto before I joined the Marines. One day, I hear this car coming before I see it... I mean sounds like a leafblower trying to move rosie o'donnell off a stack of swiss cake rolls. In pulls this black civic that's stock except for a loud exhaust and a "Type R" sticker on the windshield. This stoned out college kid comes in the store, walks up and says, no lie, no exaggeration, "Dude, I, like, wanna make my blinkers blue." I told him this was illegal in Georgia and he should take his "serious sport compact" to walmart and they will see him the correct bulb in BLUE to make his turn signals illegal. The idiot left. I'm sure he added +5 horsepower with those blue bulbs

Cool idea, don't forget the giant pep boys wing and interior feet glows. Those are always killer with the ladies. Oh and don't forget the hood windshield washer spray LED lights, those really are HAWWWT!...might as well pick up some kick a$$ muffler tips like these while you are bling blinging your car.

or you can just not do any of this, not get under glows...and keep your dignity.

WOW, that tip reminds me of this 3g eclipse with a similar tip... the whole thing protrudes from the ass of the car and has a "Fast and the Furious" brand stamped on it... laughed as it every time... then cried a little on the inside.
