has anyone seen this?

they've got led underbody glow lights in the victoria british catalog. And there's actually a picture of them on a fb! I hope NONE of you guys think of buying them. The next thing you know, they'll be stocking 2 ft. alumminum wings.

 

Hey some one had to ask for them before they started to carry them. I think that wing would be preety sweet. NOT!

 

they also have photoshopped images of universal hood scoops(the kind that just go on) not really great in my opnion........

 

It was you wasn't it...now your just trying to cover it up...

 

They also have "eruo" tail lights for FD's.

 

lol, pretty shitty but then again that is what is selling now a days. Doesn't mean they would personally do this but if kids buy this crap, why not sell it?

 

I really don't see what is so wrong with having Neons under your car... If you are building a race car...NO. But for a car you drive to car shows, drive ins ect, if done tastefully they can really compliment a show cars appearance.....

 

Show cars in general are gay imop.

 

IMOP?

How are cars that are Show quality GAy? I guess it's gay to own a car that looks and drives better then new.... :>

 

Victoria British is just trying to keep marketability up. Believe it or not, the 7's are probably their lowest priority there. They sell tons more stuff for MGs (and trucks from the Long Motor side). When I worked there, I'd have to say maybe 1 out of every 1000 customers were buying parts for 7's. These are just attempts to boost some sales, and it will probably work...the guy that runs that place is a genius with this stuff. Trust me.

 

I agree with the statement about underglow being decent if done right. I just fixed a set that I put on my friends Miata a long time ago and got it working again, and in all honesty, its pretty cool looking. Its heading towards a show car with a tasteful body kit and stuff, so it goes.

if i could find the right color i would probly buy them but i see to many people hang them too low so you see the acual light bar instead of the glowing light

 

some one in this club has blue underglow for their fb. id say it would look cool doing a burn out with it glowing underneath. you can buy them every were now because people are actually buying them iam sure you can even get them stock on some cars

 

I thought about rigging my own...the VB ones are just LEDs, so it would be pretty simple if one took the time.

 

VB probably just wanted to see if underbody lights would sell.

>>Ricers<< have their obsession, we here have our obsession. I love the fear in a ricer's eye as they see my dirty 25 year old car with primerred spots, oxidized paint, and a miss matched hood bearing down on them!

 

I used to own a Triumph Spitfire and believe it or not they have the ricer stuff for the old Brit sports cars

 

well a >>Ricer<< just has a different taste and opinion than you do, neon lights are pretty hot, maybe for my turbo II

 

thank you for saying this... i have under glow on my FB and it looks awesome with the black paint job i have... my FB is built for drifting and 1/4 mile racing and some local car shows... so screw you all that dont like it... if you dont then so be it suck it up and move on its not like its on your car... no ones making you put them on your car... if i like it then i will have them on my car... all that matters is that the person that owns the car like its then thats that... end of discussion...

If you could afford a show car, you would not be calling it gay.

 

We just got his Miata down off the jack stands today, so its actually sitting on the ground and the lights are the real distance from the ground, and the body kit is on. We're starting the prep for paint in a couple days, but the underglow looks pretty fawking cool actually. I like it a lot. I got them mounted tucked up under by the frame rails, so theres no hope of seeing the tubes, even if you were to lay down next to it. All you see is the glow of light under it, its pretty damn cool. I did a good job, even if I do say so myself.

I used to like them. But after seeing them on a few Ford Focuses and Chevy Cavaliers done horribly, I lost interest.

Maybe I'll experiment one day, but I'd rather rice with carbon fiber instead. Cops just love underbody lighted cars.

 

No it wasnt me, but I work at a bar and I know we dont carry a new liquor unless someone asks for it. But I think if done right it can look nice, And used in the right setting.

 

underglow isnt as bad as that fake sounding turbo thing thats on another forum here today

 

You got that right Bro...
That BOV thingy is a joke Things like that are for the honda peps...muhahaha

We had underglows on Blue at one time, tell one day we where puttin the car on a trailer and they broke. I liked the look but have never replaced them. If you do them right they can look good

 

ya there not bad but you allways see broken peices of them on the road from braking
