Default Looking For a lil more underglow.

I was thinking about going out a buying under car neons for my 94 ford escort. It is the sporty edition that actually looks somewhat decent. It is a dark blue with blue "ice" tinted windows. I was wondering how hard it is to put neons on, and if it is worth the hassle of installing them.

There are a few other mods to my car including a nice stereo system which pushes around 150 db and it has 16 inch rims( I didn't buy them, came with the car.)

lmao. Cars like older Escorts look so shitty with tuner-like upgrades. Don't even do it. You already fucked up by tinting the windows "ice". If you want a tuner to upgrade, don't spend your money on upgrades that will make people laugh at your car (trust me, they do, even if they don't in front of you, they do behind your back), and actually save the money and get yourself a decent tuner that looks good with upgrades such as an Acura Integra, Hyundai Tiburon, or even a [newer model] Cavalier.

Seconded.

I for one, always fucking notice the ricer cars at uni. And I always want to slap the shit out of whoever made them. Even my nonc ar inclined friends think they look stupid.

Theres this one guy with a roof scoop. I mean, what the fuck, is he trying to trick people into thinking he has a mid engine car?

He still has drums on the back and tiny tiny (probably one pot) disks and calipers on the front, probably because the original car was a shit box, and mechanically, it still is.

I think it's actually a good thing these spics and ricefaggots stick with weak low HP shitboxes.

skip spending a thousand dollars on all that underglow bullshit, sell your asscart, and buy a real car.

i have some respect for tuners who ACTUALLY tune their 4cyls, one of them is a good friend of mine, and he doesnt put gigantic wings and body kits and all that shit on his car.

the only really visible mod is the hood latches, which he says he actually needs, but w/e. he also has a V8 malibu (and he's having me weld parts on another honda )

i have a 4cylinder myself and i dont really need the extra horsepower that i COULD have, but dont bother with.

in short, your neon lights are superficial.

since its a crappy escort do it the cheap way like i did.

go to walmart and buy some of those christmas rope lights, mount those under the car, hook it to the battery with a switch on the dash. probably cost you about $20.
