Cool or Queer? Knight Rider Scanner

Is this cool or stupid I cant figure it out? I hooked up the light temporarily just to see how it looked and I cant decide.

The thing is that you cant really use it on the street cause you'll get pulled over for impersonating a police vehicle. So when is the time to even use it?

Keep it if you like it, but I'm a die-hard Knight Rider fan and I personally think it's stoooopid on anything that isn't a K.I.T.T. replica.

Re: Cool or Queer? Knight Rider Scanner

I think it would look alot better if it had it's own little space on the front instead of hiding in the crack there. It feels like your hood isn't closed all the way or something.

Re: Cool or Queer? Knight Rider Scanner
