What do you mean why? Do you even know what I am talking about?

Here is a picture example from Street Glow:

yeah CL doesnt like neons and LEDs BUT i DO!!!!!!!!!!!!
i have 2 underbody kits and 37 led tubes in the car as well as 20 individual leds... ALL is VARAD... great stuff and never had a problem with them... looks nice and bright and stands out at shows... varad i THINK is a little better quality than streetglow... GOOD luck though.. and you can look through my gallery for pics of my OLD gs with som eleds and neons.. My new one is currently in the stereo shop gettin all my stuff installed..

I am a huge fan of underglow myself! I personally have the streetglow arctic white. love the look! don't like any of the colors (i.e. blue, green, red, etc...) white looks good with anything!

To me, i just think it gives a nice touch. Looks good to me, for shows and things, if done right. Not everyone can hooke these up, or has a good color scheme, but if done right, it can look very nice. I definately wouldn't do it if i wasn't going to show my car. If it was for everyday use, or raced, i wouldn't bother, because it's not going to improve any performance lol. But to each his own, if you like it, good, if not, fine!

I got the Lite Glow LED underbody kit, I made it so it only comes on when I open the door or activate the alarm. and I could make it white cos' I prefer white LED to neon colors.

Basically the kit comes with a on/off control unit with 7 color changing and pattern control for the LEDs, but I just got my installer to make it work with the interior lights and the alarm.

They have some on Ebay
