Lil' Red sporting some neon Street Glow!

I understand it might not be for everyone.....but....this goes back to 2001 when I had a Plymouth Prowler and a friend convinced me to put it on the Prowler. He said he would buy it from me if I didn't like it. Well....it was awesome looking! I had an Orange Prowler with Orange Street Glow....sooooo...I bought a Red Street Glow kit for Lil' Red. It's hard to photograph in the dark...but you'll get the idea! What cha think???


What???? I'm a Pinkie????? Gotta send in some dues!!!

I Like it. Put a stip under the back bumper to light up the back.

Re: Lil' Red sporting some neon Street Glow!

I like it Alex. I don't see anything wrong with lighting it up at a night time car cruise. The little kids walking around with their parents always get a kick out of it

I like it!

Not that it should matter if I did not.

It is your truck, right.

Re: Lil' Red sporting some neon Street Glow!

Looks hot!! I like it.

I've been wanting to get a blue lighting kit for my '69 for a while.

What do you reccommend neon or LED?

Re: Lil' Red sporting some neon Street Glow!

I like it. To each their own, and I've considered putting a kit under my truck when it gets closer to being finished.

When it is done tastefully it looks nice, and your's looks great!

When I was in police academy back in 2002 my instructor said the same thing.

Haven't been hassled about my bike yet and been riding with them for over 8 months now

Re: Lil' Red sporting some neon Street Glow!

This is my second vehicle with them on it...no problems in Colorado...just like you guys said...As long as they can't directly be seen without laying on the ground...cops have no problem with them. For the record...I DO NOT like the neon license plate frame light...tacky in my opinion.
