Neons... Yay or Nay
Wednesday, September 27, 2006 2:40 AM
Okay... Its becoming aparrent that when someone has a set of neons on there car (good or crappy, tuner or muscle), they start getting put down. I mean, personally, I think they're visually cool. It all on how its done.

But on to the subject.

Would you, as a fellow JBOeon, put neons on your car? (Inside and/or out)








...They just HATE it when you ...POINT - LAUGH - then DRIVE OFF AND AWAY-!...

It's all about personal preference man. Really, I think if I had a show-only car that I'd dumped work on and would be spending most of its time on a showroom floor trying to win style trophies - yes.

But anything I plan to drive daily, take to the strip, or track, I wouldn't bother. Mostly because its just adding @!#$ to break, weight (even if negligible), and seems a bit tacky.

Then again, like I said - preference. To some people 'style is' flat black with deep tint and polished chrome, to others its bright green with silver lightning bolts and park benches.

Regardless, do whatever the hell you want, just be proud of what you did. If you put @!#$ like that on just to impress other people, its pretty @!#$ pointless. Otherwise, its your car, have fun

Most neons I see are not hidden, so the tubes are visible.

I have pry seen less than six vehicles with hidden neons, that looked good. One good one was in CA on the interstate. White modded Civic hatch, with green neon. Looked like it was floating on a green cloud.

I am not a fan of neon. It does look good if it is done correctly.

I plan on doing neons when Im done doing all my performance mods (show and go)

But...

Yeah its all opinions as to whether or not you'd put a set of neons on your J's.
Any more from anyone else?

I had neons in mine, but took them out when one busted. Would i put them back in? Yes. I like the ambience of it when I'm in the mood, just as I like total darkness in the car in a certain mood.. Just hide the tubes!

I like mine... Streetglow gold series underbodies. color is red. I also have cathodes all throughout the inside of the car and door pockets. Now here's the catch: They only turn on when the door is opened, or when I turn the domelight switch on. I had fun with that No switches anywhere, hehe. Everything is hidden
