Thumbs up So I was leaving the lot at the fireworks show and.......

...Im getting in the 7. This guy that was selling glowsticks had a bunch left, and im like, errrrr, ill give u $3 for a dozen. And hes like ok. So I take them and activate them all, and immediatly begin duct taping them to my frame. By the Time i was done, I had a complete underbody light kit. DOnt get me wrong, i dont like ricing or anything, but i couldnt pass this up. I was like awwww yea y0 Nossss and ppl were like thats phat,, but then this cop on a bike was like, errrrrrrrrr thats illegal, u shouldnt drive with those, and im like ok
then he leaves, but keeps watchin me. so i start taking them off, and this cop was very disgusted that i put glowsticks all over the bottom, but yea, it was a pretty good 4th/

12 Glowsticks: $3.00
Mazda RX7: $50
Duct Tape: Found in hatch, cant remember buying it

People asking how much the kit cost:Priceless

I can picture someone taping those to their car, hahaha, that's damn funny.

guy1 - "Dude, those are badass neons, I bet those were expensive"

guy2 - "Thanks, cost me $3"

guy1 - "Holy ****, why so cheap?"

guy2 - "I dunno, ask that guy over there, he has some sticks left."

You must learn to laugh, amigo....don't spend every waking moment trying to disprove someone or flaunt your intellect.....the appropriate response was....

"Jeez, ya damn ricer!!"...

C-channels... they take the flex out of the floorpan and help provide pad-lifting points. Also hand for duct taping glowsticks under your car.

I think thats why Mazda put them there originally. A handy place for glowstick applications, that is.

you're right. thats what new rx7 needs, if they make another gen of them. GLOW STICK HOLDERS. adds a **** load of power. think about it. it's all about the appearence of power. the only person that would put that kinda uderbody on a 7 is the type of person that doesn't fear any ricer. the apppearence is what it's all about.

That's f'en hilarious. I gotta get a bunch of the green one for our next cruise meet. Cheap, hilarious and removable... I really want someone to ask me about the price for the kit. I'd die.
