well i got a few white led strips a while back and i have one extra one sitting arond. I was thinking of putting it underneath the grill such that it kinda glows from behind the grill when the lights are on. But i feel like it seems borderline rice. So i wanted to get other peoples oppinions.

clifnotes: lighting behind the grile of the car. Rice or Not Rice

 

I did it and then fucked it up and been too lazy to re-do it but I have to say it looked pretty sweet. http://memimage.cardomain.com/ride_i...0100_large.jpg I wouldn't really call it rice if you don't always have it on. For me lights are just to say I have them really . I almost never use my underglow, or interior lights.

 

it really depends on how you do it. Why don't you just try it and see if you like it. You can always take it off.

 

I say ricey, but im an attention ***** myself. so i say do it. If it doenst look good, just take it off.

 

put the light someplace useful. in your trunk maybe. the stock light in there sucks ass!!

 

...who cares that we think, if you like it do it.

 

X2

Yea but I will still call it rice

 

He asked for opinions....so were giving it to him?.....

 

Sometimes the rice/not rice factor depends on installation.

Regardless, give it a shot. If you like it, cool. If not, pull it off. lol.

 

well i ended up installing it under the hood, by the strut tower bar. So it shines on the valve cover.
i thought it seemed like there was just to much going on in the front with the headlights and foglights and the grill being lit up

 

depends how its done, like almost everyone has been saying

 

yeah what they said ^^^
if you like it, keep it. You can always turn them off. Just don't leave 4ft of wires hanging down or anything

 

I had thought about it too, but never got around to it, I was also afraid of them melting or something from the engine heat. I did a little test with a spare neon tube once, i though it looked cool.

 

Pics? I've been thinking of doing that instead of the grill again. I wanna see how it looks with the strut bar there.
