It is of par to BC, but definetly does not beat it. I do like the TRIPLE taillights, though (or at least it looks like it has triple tails). A non-solid color would help (or a better solid color)....

Coheed...underglows

Coheed, those "underglows" are club-style glowsticks. They're real lil ones (1.5" long, I think?) and maybe 3/16" thick. You can get packs of them for like a buck, they last a couple hours.
