    Well your red car isn't really rice so adding them to it won't make it "rice". I guess if you have nothing better to do and if you want to do it then go for it. It's your car, so do what you want to it. Hell, maybe if you turn them on by somebody, they will want to race you

    There is a difference between looking nice and rice, and if done right, lights aren't really gawdy or anything... I say go for it. The car is a mean machine, and it'll make all the REAL ricers jealous.

    I say go for it. If you don't like it, you don't have to have drive with them on. I have them on my car. But most of the time, I leave them off. You will get ricers trying to race you.

    There's just some things that don't really look good on cars and neons are one of them IMHO. It gets attention, sure, but typically three kinds of attention:

    1. legit ricers
    2. people who hate ricers and will call you a "ricer"
    3. the police

    The police are gonna be on your junk like stink on a monkey, especially since they'd be red.

    No matter what people say your car already looks like a beast it drives like a beast, so use those neons as the fires of hell that your beast is emerging from
    I just wish the police loved my car as much as i do 3.5,160 Stat,HAI,ZZP F/R STB, SSAC Headers, Reptile PCM

    If he only uses them off-road, the police CAN'T give him ****. The people that call him "ricer" can find out the hard way, and the legit ricers can suffer.

    True, but when would you use them off road? Your driveway? A parking lot?

    Meetups, drag strips, etc, yes, I would use them off road. I've sat in parking lots just chilling on numerous occasions.
