I saw an Eclipse with them, looked pretty good. I wouldn't call it rice, cause it's not excessive. I'd say go for it, if you think it would look good. I might actually think about gettins some red ones and see how they look.

The things that go thru your mind at 2am. Now thinking about it, seems a little tacky to me.
I was autozone today, they actually have a tailpipe that will light up too, if I ever see that on a car, I'm just going to laugh at the person.

You got to be kidding me a Tail pipe that lights up I bet the next thing will be strobe lighgt hooked up to your plug wires so when the engine fires that cylinder the light will go on then your engine bay will look like studio 54 LOL

You know they made (make?) a Distributor cap that is clear and you can see the firing going on thru it? I was going to buy one awhile back for my 70 Chevy Truck,but when It came time to replace the cap I forgot about it and just bought a plain one... lol

A lot of girls around here have the lights on their wheels. It's a girl thing, I guess.

They already have those.. I saw on Speedvision once, this guy had these clear tubes or wires (something) that connected to the spark plugs inline or inplace of the sparkplug wires, and it looked really trick. The sparks would flicker with the RPM. But it wasn't a hi-performance car application, just a show bike. But I had wondered if that would work on a car and not hurt the performance...

I wouldn't recommend the lights but if you do get them make sure you get the ones that you can replace the battery on. A friend of mine bought some neon green ones for his ninja. They look okay when you are doing about 70 MPH but while cruising at 25-40 MPH they dont stay on long enough and just kinda blink, doesnt look good. I'm sure if the right cop saw them they would have something to say about them.
