Actually, that red looks pretty damn evil.

LED's that are sound-sensitive that they light up brighter to engine revs???? Write-up anyone?!?!?!

I vaguely remember some sound sensitive neons that would blink, flash, and pulsate from the sound of your car stero. Definately gonna look for them.

Thumbs up

I ordered some red cold cathode tubes for my hood. I'm going to put a couple in the side vents as well. I'll post pics when I'm done.

I've got the BG Ram Air system, so I'm trying to figure out the best way to do this since its a sealed straight shot instead of the baffles and such. Check this out also

blue neons

This guy used reflective tape inside his.

Some of them look pretty bitchin, just depends on the style that you want, and if your packin under the hood and people are sayin ricer, just tell them to step on up and see how big of a ricer it is!
