Default Underbody lights

Does anybody use PlasmaGlow, StreetGlow or any other kind of underbody light kits?
If you do, please post some pics.

Let me see... Modifications>Body/Exterior/Interior/Lighting
Underbody lights are exterior lights.
If not here, then where should I be looking?

I didn't say wrong section of the forums. I said wrong web site. People here have more respect for their cars and themselves here.

like many things; certain mods have just become associated with "cheap" cars. Im sure you know what Im saying.

there was a blue Z on here; decals; custom body kit; and underbody lights; the epitomy of "rice". but it looed pretty good cause it was all done extremely well. the problem is things become generalized, and all the tacky flourescent jobs with bulbs visible from around the car and all that gives them a bad name.

Im sorry I cant remember the guys name that had them; not sure he has the car anymore anyway; I know he removed the decals and body kit too maybe; but he may have kept the underbody lights.

OK Mr. Pototo Head, enough of your 0.02.

murrman100, I would also recommend Varad. Their underbody kits use LED's which look better than fluorescent IMHO.

It looks like I opened a can of bad worms.
I was just wondering if anybody had done that to their cars.
Beauty and art comes in many forms. From inside the cars to the outside.
Some people say that the rear spoilers/ front spoilers/packages, custom parts/ exhaust / lights/leds/CAI's ruin the natural look of the Z's.
It is an enthusiast car. People will mod a car no matter what the heck it is.

Ya know, not that I'd do neon/undercar lights (I don't have a problem with it, just not my style really), I don't get why everyone has to rag someone because they might like something that someone else considers "ricey".

So what? We all like different things, that's what makes us individuals.

Maybe he's not ricey, maybe you're just too conservative?

Those pics of the blue car actually look really nice I thought.

Underbody neon is fine for show cars... Even street-show cars (aka show-off in parking lots on Friday nites, etc). I think its when we see the underbody neon mounted on to a dodge neon driven by some guy that can barely spell "neon" driving down a normal city street. Then you just sorta go "Oh, who is this chump?"

Also I think its different in SoCal - cars are so modded here you almost have to go with neon or something crazy to get to the "highly noticeable" level...

I agree completely.

I guess I should elaborate my point a little though...

It just seems that most anything anyone does or talks about on this forum in particular, if it isn't "classy" or conservative, gets called rice.

I dunno, kinda stupid IMO. I mean we all like Z's right? So what if Guy A likes big wings, neon and stickers and Guy B likes more subtle and reserved mods.

That's fine for both of'em because obviously both are psyched about it.

I just think all the bashing on this forum is dumb..

ESPECIALLY since it's a damn import car anyway! lol!
