If you are under 25 it's ok. Personally I think it looks pretty cool, the only ricey thing I really care for(Hate the buzz boxes/fart tips, spinners(pimp I guess), stuff like that). That said, If you are going to do it, do it right. That means: Both sides, Front and back, Corners, Wheel wells, grill.

Those lights on the TSX look ludicrous....makes the car look like some kind of ride at an amusement park.

Or maybe a theme park with the theme being

i think that they are stupid. the led's he installed have a bad projection pattern and you can see each individual housing, rather than one solid spread. IMO, i think that a white sides only underglow kit would have looked nicer......

Do you have pics of the lights. I'm curious to see how that looks.

underbody neons are a no-no. I am a bit more partial to puddle lights installed on the sideskirt. Gives more of a classy look. JDM VIP. Only works well though when your car is fully modded. With just the lights it looks like you have no money for any REAL mods.

bad pic but the only one I could find real quick.. http://www.jlevisw.com/store/images/xB%20puddles.jpg

I think that you should do what ever you like it is your car, it shouldn't matter if other want like it. If you like it and you think that it is fire then do it fuck what others think.

I second that..

Question now is, if the car's lowered and one has an underbody kit, how much clearance would the person get between that kit and the road? For instance, what are the chances of the kit itself getting damaged?

Never understood why people here ask for our opinions.

Hey! It's YOUR car. Do what you think looks good to YOU.

What ever happened to personalizing your car?? Whatever I did to my car I did because I liked it! When I post pictures of my car I could give a flying f. less who says what about it. I bought it for me not for some popular poll or someone else's' opinion!!

Stop looking for approval here. Post your car and be proud! Fuzzy dice, neons, whatever! Do whatever makes you happy.

Of course, if what makes you happy is what someone else thinks.............................
