Blue would look good if the car had a body kit. I saw this old ford taurus driving around here with green neons. They were mounted so you could see the whole tube, and they were flickering on and off. I later realized they were probably going off everytime the rattling bass would hit. So bad!

Neons have to be car worthy. They don't look good on everything. And if you get some, go with red. It looks the best on every application.

like i said earlier... a lot of people in my town have em... most have blue, but a few peeps with red cars went with red.

i usually say they only look geed when parked, like in show...

but the other night we were all going down this highway with our lights off and neons on... it looked sweet.

i like the neon under body lights. they look cool. but i dont know if they are legal where i am. if they are i'd put them on my car. also i agree, that they dont fit with all car's. some times they can be "over-used" on some cars.

i like them if they are done right....where you can't see the light itself but just the illumination of the light. they look awesome on cars with body kits

My opinion: I hate them. Ever since fnf movie came out everyone wants to make their car look like the cool ones in the movie. Some kid at my school just gat a red 01 civic. He is getting undercarlights and a flamethrower kit(he wants it to shoot out red flames when he hits the NOS) how stupid is that. I hate undercar lighting. No it doesnt add horespower.

It's not high on my list of things to add but I don't mind it as long as it's done tastefully. I agree that it's best on a car with some sort of body kit so you can't see the tubes, looks cleaner. I'm not a big fan of driving with them on though, I prefer them on when the car is parked.

Underbody Neons are always a touchy thing. On the right car, they look good. On the wrong car, they look like 10 pounds of hot Monkey Poo. As long as the light source are mounted to where they cannot be seen and compliments the car.

I really like mine. As long as you hide the tubes under a bodykit, they look nice. When they're off noone can tell you have them anyway. Just don't go driving around town with them on. Good for meets and parking lots, though. Streetglow gold is the best.
