Installing 2 sets of neons?
Is it physically possible to install 2 sets of neons on our car? I've been thinking about it and I was wondering if, even if it's feasable, would it be goofy looking to do? I've got a white coupe and I'm thinking of installing a set of blue and set of white StreeGlow Gold Series neons under the car. I think it's a good concept, but probably would be hard to execute. It would espically too much draw on the power of the car. What do you guys think though? If it's feasable, is it a good idea?

Rep Power: 318 why not just go with turquoise? combonation of white and blue right there. if anything, having 2 sets would make it brighter. And speaking of making it brighter... what if i sprayed some kind of reflective paint around the area above the neon tube locations? think it would make a big difference? the black chassis just absorbs all that beautiful light

Rep Power: 318 perhaps some glossy silver paint would work... hm.
I relocated my front neon so it rests inside the bumper (before it was hanging too low, you could see it from the front of the car from like 50ft away
so I went to work
it looks really cool, now it shines both on the ground and up into the grill. only problem is, there are only 6 tiny holes at the bottom of the bumper where light shines through. i'd like to cut them bigger, if not all the way across, but i'm afraid it'll weaken the bumper too much.

Rep Power: 0 Just to give my opinion, not that it matters, but My friend has the "Lite Glow" brand of neon lights off of ebay for $80, I got the "Reactor" brand of neon off ebay as well and mine are way brighter than hers. So just some food for thought for anyone interested in buying some.
