I'd love to see them on a 6n2.

My m8 has red neons on his corsa, and it looks really good. Makes the car look faster, even though it aint.

Just looks gr8.

His car is a dark greyish kinda color, with red neons, so it all goes.

if you can see the neon tube and your cars rubbishly mod'd

then no

if your car is pretty nice and the tubes are bright but hidden and not blue or green (cos i've seen milllions)

then why not


i'm not sure how to make a euro car pull it off

perhaps for me, seen as my personal "corporate colors" (sad i know) are black and red (you never seen my hair lol) then i'd like a matt black car with red neon underneith

matt black cars

mmmm

For me, neons are great little things! I'd have a red LED kit if the opportunity arose - LEDs are slimmer so you don't have to have a wild bodykit to hide them behind. Like carmadaaron said, varad seem to have a good rep, although there is certainly plenty of choice out there!!

So, in short: on the right car, neons rock 8) whether it be euro-smooth or jap-style crazy.

Would you be able to get two photos of your car please?

One in the morning, of the car without the neons on.

And the other in the night, same position if you can, with the neons on?

Would be great. Is your car metallic blue by any chance aswell?

hmmm heres the thing with Neons, they can look good if there well hidden underneath the car, but I think, if you can see any part of the bulb than they look utter w**k.

If your gonna have them, make sure your hide them !!
