I know this mod is rather disliked, but I decided hell with it I am getting LED lights under my car this week. I have some cash to spend and this seems like a fun idea. Now I can strike all those ricers with fear!

Flame Discuss my decision


PS: Good LEDs, Pep Boys install, not overly expensive

If you do this, please don't add it to your mod list, its not worth especially having dinan products.

I wouldn't dare. Plus they are 100% show and I will rarely use them (Trust me, I really have no great use of them) Plus they are hidden from everyone except me

wouldn't be too bad if you hook it to the entry relay so when door is open, it lights up but otherwise, it will look very awkward on a such a beautiful car. I still remember back in the days when I had those neon on my 240SX.

Ahhh man!!! Don't do it, would be my opinion!! But, it's your money and your car, so it's up to you!! As you said, it's purely for show purposes, and that makes it a little less bad!!

If it makes you happy man, go for it. It's your hard-earned cash.

Happy Motoring.
