More fool you ! i went to my local motormania on saturday and they were selling 3.5-4ft max power neons complete with fitting kit, cable, switch etc. Reduced from £39.99 to £9.99 . Needless to say i didnt buy em or i could have sold em to you for £20 each.

 

[beau]

well i got-

a under neon set made by max power
remote control for neons made my max power
6 12" neon lights

for about 100ish

the sides are a bitch without deep skirts - can't be done.

Front and back are relatively easy

So you reckon some alloys in a recent MM thread (that dont really look chavvy at all) are chavvy and you're putting neons on a standard looking Punto.

Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight......

where would you like me to start? its not going to be standard when im driving is it?

 

[wolfracepunto]

Id start by spending £100 on getting it looking tidy- taking any scratches and dents out, not buying flashing lights.

ok, £100 for 6 tubes and remote you say, not bad brand new (im trying to be neutral in this) but they dont flash? pulsate, strobe, dance? how many colours? yeh you would need to hide them well, under low side skirts and front and rear bumpers not really a prob tbh.

i got 4 tubes in the under car neon set
then remote
then 4 12" interior neons

there plain red, dont flash or anything, just solid red

right u posted 6 tubes i think neva mind, tbh £100 for any solid colour that dont do anything other than stay solid i would say aint a good deal, i got 2x 24" tubes and 2x36" that are 7 different colours and do more than just stay solid, but i only have them on solid unless people ask otherwise, u do know u cant have the source of light on show, or show red light at the front of your car?

 

[dave]

where the scratches and dents come from allready?

yeah so could i, but i didnt want flashing 7 colours, and they are neons, not led's as the flashing, multicolour kits are :yuck: dont like the led kits

oh ok, sorry was just saying i wasnt asking if u liked them, i was pointing out the fact you can have more than one colour. but wel if they are neons wow' like anyone will no the difference as i have said you aint allowed to have the source of light showing

 

[beau]

iv seen led kits, and they put a row of light does on the road :yuck: and no where near as bright as neon kits iv seen

ok then, i like my 'l.e.d's dont have em on all the time, jus certain times, to an extent they can be chavish i admit but can look nice

i aint having another thread turn nasty, but i will say this, people will notice your car as they see light coming from it, what they wont do is study the light for 5 mins and go 'yep they are definately neons, and not l.e.d's' i aint heard one person say to me wow look at ur l.e.d's they say them neons look trick or nice job, or not too keen on the red, but the purple is sweeet '

 

[beau]

well red car- red neons couldnt have any of colour i dont think, except white but pointless
