a98pmalcolm Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 I was just wondering what peoples options are on them. Back in 2002 is was the coolest thing to do and over the past 10 years it was the in un-coolest thing to do. I hear there coming back in.. I have never disliked them nor bothered fitting them.

Supra2jze Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 I actually forgot these existed. I liked them back in the day when I was a young..., I think it also depends on how kitted your car is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MATT RR Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 not a fan, IMO it just looks daft but at the end of the day I'd always say make the car the way you want it, if you like it then who cares Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Ash-IV Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 You say its for the kids in their one litres, but no ones going to be mugging you off about it when you smash them off the line in a 500hp beast ;-) It has become quote uncool, but it does work on certain cars if they are built the right way.

The Raven Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 I wanted them and Lamborghini doors. That was 15 years ago tho. Styles change Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hitbox Junkie Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 Have them inside rather than out. But not too in your face and they can look to have a bit of class rather than look rice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luxluc Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 Unless you are 18 years old, I wouldn't do it. We are 15 years ahead of that time. I like your car the way it is now ; don't ruin it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cered Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 They're definitely making a re-appearance. I've seen a VW pickup with green neons, few cars with engine grill neons, few pics of cars online with neons (this year/new shoots). Think their appearance in GTA V has boosted the image and its spreading online so the appeal of them is growing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ripped_fear Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 As above I have seen more cars with them fitted. Also making appearances again under the bonnet. Not for me any more, did it on my last car, front, sides, and rear under car, foot wells, boot, Leds in the pillars and head rests. The thing we do when we are young. Must have looked like a carnival float lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Ec1202014 Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 I've also seen some pop up in the last few months, and not just on little corsa's and the like. Saw a GTR with what must have been just a few white/slightly blue led or led strip inside the bumper kind of glowing up the vent/intake. Same on the back but nothing under the sills. It actually looked quite good, wasn't F&F as such but rather tastefully done. When TopGear have the cars sat there in the studio after a feature, they often have a blue'ish/white neon sat under the front. Well did before we lost it! Be interesting to see if they make a come back, I think some form of them will, but not like we saw them before glowing the whole of the ground around the car in pink or great neon.

binfieldx Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 (edited) I like them when it's done correctly i.e a solid glow under each side of the car, no dotted glows or visible bars/strips. I think my supra could definitely get away with neons as it's very F&F already haha. Infact it has footwell neons Edited May 6, 2015 by binfieldx (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Nicholas Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 Personal taste, I strongly dislike them but I also strongly dislike those Paul Walker tribute stickers people have. If you like them go for it, the whole point of the modified car scene is to make your car your own! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
