I really like the teal convertible on the right, but I'm not too sure about the wheels and fender trim on the other one...the "glow" is questionable, too...but hey, to each his own.

That is an awesome shot. Too bad you can't see all of the black one. The only thing I personally don't like and I'm sure you'll hear from others is that chrome fender trim and the bra, or part of a bra anyway. Very nice shot though.

I love the effect those neons under the car give off. I was thinking of ordering a set for my camaro. Are they very hard to install?

I like the neons, but not really the chrome fender trim or the bras. The only reason i dont like bras is because alot of people use them to hide dents/cracks. But other than that, they are clean looking. Do cops ever bother you about the neon lights, especially the red? I want to do green or purple neons but i already et pulled over enough. Damn Rowlett cops, leave me alone!

thanks for the compliments guys, i appriciate them. as far as the neons go, they're not really hard to install. the hardest part is getting under the car to do it. as far as cops go, i've gotten a few $100 tickets already cause the law here in Pa is they're illegal in motion. but other than that you can have them on sitting. of course i was driving around with them on when i got the tickets. but actually, i've driven past alot of cops with them on and they didn't even care, so i guess it depends on the cop if he wants to pull you over or not. thanks again.

yeah, the convertible has a half bra on it where it's just the hood half on it, and the black car has a one piece full bra on it.

Since you asked for comments about your pic, and since everyone else has already commented on the cars themselves (I'm in the no-neon, no-chrome camp myself but I respect diversity), I'll comment on the picture.

You could make a pretty nice picture even better by putting the cars much closer together. Your background is good. If you put the cars closer together you could shoot from closer, get only the trees in the background which makes for a cleaner photo, and get more details on the cars themselves. You might even get the neon lights to overlap which might create a nice effect.

Only since you asked...
