Its against the law to have any blue lights on the front of your car at least. The police get really funny about it and will give you a producer to remove them or nick you on the spot.

No irony really. Its illegal for vehicles other than emergency vehicles to display blue lights or indeed anything resembling a blue light. I would think similar laws are used in other countries even the US.
