go with something drastically different. like.... pink!
underglow is a waste of money. 99% of people who have it, use it for a week, then never turn them on ever again.

I've thought about getting some glow. But i'd kit up first. which also means, lowering, and rims before glow.
yes, my lights ARE visible from the outside. Its not illegal here, since they are interior, and below the windshield. NY laws allow for underbody, as long as they aren't red/blue (emergency colors) and you can't have them on while the car is moving.
to which i thought of a devious little plan to avoid that w/o any work.. but i'm not sure how well it'd work.
First off.. get some magnet wire or resistor wire. Wire wrap a few widths around the peg on your speedometer, and then a few widths around the end of the speedometer needle. Connect both of those to a relay. When they contact, the relay kicks on, lights turn on. (could only happen at 0mph) when they aren't touching, the relay is not engaged, no lights are on. BOOYA.. problem solved.
I'm not motivated enough to do it though. I'm just a thinker.

It would so work. but traffic lights and stuff like that, they'd get angry.

the generic 5x114.3 rims will work on our car, some people have no problems others have to use hubcentric centering rings....
