just wondering you opinions on neons and the likes because I saw an S13 with some fancy stuff on it the other day.

Oh, and if you haven't already clicked a vote can we set aside the fact that you all would rather spend your money one perfermance parts?

As for my vote well I am undecided, when I first saw blue lights shining down on the road off some wogbox I thought... what a f**king try-hard, but now I have to wonder if I was just jealous koz he had a nice wogbox and I was still serving my record-breaking disqualifcation.

Well IMHO...

I am more into Performance than *RICE* but i still like a car to look good a plain simple body kit with nice rims is nice for the looks but Neons just over do it same with those full chrome mags that have no taste what so ever but if i saw a car with Neons i would say yeah that's cool or whatever that's his taste but i like to have a back breaking turbo in my car.. that's my taste ;)

anyway my 2cents

Opinion on.

Cars are a neon free zone. Full stop. Hang your head in shame if you have them on your car. Seriously $20 is like 6 schooners, i know what i'd rather do

Opinion off.

I had the smallest amount of neon light rice on my car before it went into get the motor done... and only 1 bit of it remains but is not even hooked back up yet.

I think most people go overboard and make it look shit... but I am happy with what I did, it looks reasonable and I am happy... but I still not 100% sure if I will put it all back in yet :P (p.s. the whole lot cost me like $15 so I am not really thinking I wasted the money)

ok neons under car and overdone rice like fully chrome mags and over the top bodykits i dont like but just like a bodykit can be tasteful, so can neons, like under seats.

IF i had a FMIC (ie if i had a turbo...grrrrrrrrrr) i would mount a small neon to light it up a little at night...i think it would look cool.

thats what i think.
