I will never understand the attraction of having coloured glowing lights underneath your car. Interior, I'll let that slide, but exterior? what...the...f**k
I thought they were legal though as long as they weren't red, to avoid brake light confusion?

yeah man, neons scream, "I love Thorpie" = Gay

I saw this comedian called David O Doherty who said that when you see people with neons under their car you should tap on their window and say-

'Excuse me, but I think your transmission is haunted'

the only time i would consider neons on the front and back is if i could get blue and red and have them flashing then in peak hour traffic you put them on and the sea of traffic should part....ALL POWERFUL....of course the car would have to be white and you would get done for impersonating a cop but at least you saved time from waiting in traffic.
