My black on black VIP "style" build

**dGALANTc** · 10-21-2010, 09:29 PM

i dont think underbodys alone is rice its how your car is set up you know. if you got a kit that doesnt fit, all the lights everywhere in your car are the same color as your underbody,and you painted certain parts of your interior the same bright color= rice. this is classy ive seen some high end cars with pubble lights like this I love it.

you need to buy a 6a13 or a 6a12. the way they sound would be perfect for this biuld. very high strung european like, perfect for a VIP build

yes it seems silly to buy the engine for the sound but hey...

4cyl just doesnt make sense lol

anyways, looks good

I dig underbody neons, not underbody LEDs though. (Puddle lights excluded).

The puddle lights is only cool on ricky's ride because it is genre specific. If thats the right term.

Puddle lights have been a part of the VIP scene for a while and since Ricky's G is VIPish, it is only proper to rock them.

Unlike regular neons which mostly end up on some half-assed shitboxes on the street.

Wow those puddle lights are a really nice touch

I'm not going to argue with you man, they are lights under the car. Some people wire their neons to do the same when the doors open, I don't care the intent, it is lights under the car. If you can't see when you get out of a car, then you shouldn't be in one.

Sweeeeeeeeeeet!!!!!!! Coming along very nicely bro.

if u don't get it from what i and others have told you, u will probably never get it, but i'm not giving up on u just yet.

i'll make it real simple, think of the perception of the great majority of others out there have (not your own personal feelings):

puddle lights = sophisticated, clean, luxurious, VIP styling
underbody neons = tacky, gaudy, ricer

again, years ago, underbody neons were the fashion and were accepted as cool, but like super baggy pants, they are out and now receive more ridicule than props from both the tuner community and the general public.

i used the same two products on everything

1st i cleaned them with either tuff stuff or acetone to get all the grease, armor all, and dirt off
2nd sprayed them with the bulldog with 2 light layers let dry
3rd sprayed a minimum of 2 layers of paint. on the high traffic areas i used 4 or 5.
i paint at like 12 inches away evenly left to right. if you see bright spots go a little farther away and spray to blend it in.
4th once its dry all the way (24 hrs) i went over it with a microfiber cloth paper towels leave small pieces of blu shit on it.
and 6th intentionaly park next to a stock galant at the gas station and pump your gas with the door open.

I do that shit all the time. And what can the other Galant owner do? Nothing. Absolutely nothing! He/she would drive home with their pride and joy stripped away from them
