undercar neons!
 
well i thought up an idea about makeing some nice undercar neons but i don't have the resources to try it...it could be possible to make multiple splices(like in the multiple lights thread), paint them blue, and strategically place the faceing the floor makeing it look like some pretty good neons. i did a lil' test with my normal lights and it seems possible :) (except the lights kinda shine through the stock paint).

Cover the inside of your car with reflective tape. It will prevent the light from shining thru the stock paint plus reflect the light more evenly from under the car.

I thought about useing trhe little lasers that come with legos
And put a light next to it

Wen I was working with the Underlights I painted the inside of the car body Silver. Just normal Testors silver paint about 3 coats . kept the light from showing through.

i was thinking about glow in the dark paint because i have this bouncy glow in the dark silly putty and with the lights of in my room i can put an oject in the corner and 5 inches away i can tell what it is it would depend probably what kind of paint how thick and how much light it can suck up because thats how it glows it pics up certain colors of light in the spectrum and slowly releases it but yeah just an idea post what ya think

you could use computer case moding cathode tubes.......for the bes and most realistic effect.........and many sizes to chose from

The cable they had looked like it might work.
