Neon Body Kit????

I'm quite in to the visual aspect of my truck right now and i'm wondering if some of you think that the neon light under the truck would make it look cool.

you have to say, that during the day we have heads turning, but at night, that's another story.

i'm starting to make some mods on the truck, but i don't think i'm going to do anything that's under the hood, considering this truck has sufficient power.

Undercar neon looks great at night. Check out the LED kits. They are brighter and withstand bumps and bruises better. Ive had neon before on other cars. Looked cool. But be careful about your local laws. In the state I am originally from it is illegal. And yes I got a $68 fine for improper AUX. lighting.

of course your typical RED & BLUE is not recommended, but you still have people who put them on.

i understand that having lights on a car would look great, but i'm talking about our truck, it's bigger and higher stance.....would the lighting hurt it or make it look more appealing?

I think it would look good. Just be careful about placement. Theres nothing worse than bieng able to see the bulbs. I have seen neon on lifted trucks and on some vans. Just depends on how its done.

Don't know about Arizona, but they are illegal in most states. $50-$75 fine. Some cops don't care so they don't stop you. But it's just another ticket if your stopped for something else. Personally, I don't care. But it's something to consider.

Personally I think neon on any vehicle car or truck looks like crap. But it’s your truck so go put that gay neon light all over it. Also why don’t you put a disco ball on the inside.

I guess to each his own. Some people have an eye for tuning, and others, well.... You know.

If you are going to put any kind of lighting under your truck make sure you do it right. This means that you should not be able to see the bulb you only want to be able to see the glow. I would highly recommend using an led lightbar instead of a neon tube. This is because led tubes require less amps, more durable, programmable, able to direct the light and more. Checkout varad's led lightbars. I have used several of their kits and have been very pleased.

Yea, I've installed both and the LED is the way to go.
