NEON PROVEN TO ATTRACT A-HOLES

Whenever I cruise with my neons on people always feel the need to yell stupid stuff at me like how I think I'm so cool and crap. Others see them then try to pick fights with me. Whatever happened to the good old fashioned compliment. Now everytime I pull in a parking lot somewhere, I be sure to turn them off early so some jerk doesn't try and break them when I'm gone or something. I'm not tryin to make myself look cool, but what's wrong with wantin' my car to look cool?

not to dis or anything, but newsflash buddy: neons are rice. they are made for lowriders and showcars. not civics.


lemme ask you: what else do you have done to your car? besides the neons of course.

Last time I checked, the definition of rice was acting like you're fast, when you're not (ie. stickers for parts that you don't have, buying white shoe polish and writing fake times like you've been to the track, etc.). Neon lights are for show, and I love 'em, (girl's love em too ). Just because it's something YOU don't like, doesn't mean it's rice. Some people would argue that ANY aftermarket part on a Civic is rice, but that's their opinion. If you ask me, anyone who feels that the world should conform to all of their opinions should go sit on their thumb and spin . But that's just my opinion [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/IMG].

Anyway, don't worry about what other people think. Many people are impressed with neon lights, many people are not. Just go with what you like, and roll with pride !

(P.S. Unfortunatly they attract cops attention too, so be careful around the Po-po Station [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG] )

On a good looking car, neons look sweet. But then again neons can be rice too.....like this pos green geo metro that rolls around when im cruisin with green neons. Some people do seem to act like any aftermarket part on a honda is rice. I think most of the people sayin junk are really just jealous.

All I can say is alot of people i this world did not get enough dissapline taught to them at a young age. Hence the neanderthalism rages out in public for attention. Well either that or the water is contaminated by aliens?!

I stopped someone for driving with them on the other night. They were extremely bright and I noticed several other motorists in my lane staring at the vehicle. Distractions can equal accidents, so that's the real reason that you're not supposed to have them on while driving. I stopped the driver and asked him to please not use them while driving. Parking lots are a different story.

Thats a very sophisticated "reason" for a cop to step in as in a scenario such as that one. But then again, I'm sure the majority of Cops don't really care about that. In fact why do Cops down here in Miami turn on their Disco lights just to get by traffic and cross the intersection? While doing this MANY, if not EVERYONE is paying attention to ONLY the cops disco lights worried, praying and hoping they aint the target for the shark, lol. Miami cops are nuts, Quik you need to regulate down here. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-blush.gif[/IMG]

i don't see the point of people turning on the neons at the road, that's just trying to boost their ego, i love neons at the shows, but if you decides to turn your neons on driving, i must agree that's pretty rice...

Whoa...I wouldn't go as far as to flame people. You may be asking for a verbal beating from some of the members here. I WILL NOT be responsible for the result of your actions

Personally I think neons (not the cars, those suck) look good, if they're done properly and tastefully. I saw a few weeks ago some guy in an '87 Rabbit (somethin like that) with one single purple neon hanging off his back bumper. That = crap. But if you have a good color scheme going - and you don't distract other drivers by driving with them on - then they can look really nice. And you should do what you feel looks good, because after all it's YOUR car. Not theirs. If you like it, then F**k them. There, that's my opinion, and I say do what you like!

Cheers. [IMG]i/expressions/beer_yum.gif[/IMG]
