Default Those ubercool floodlights under the cars...

So, what about them? Those coloured lights under the cars in the F&F films are the main reason I like the films :P. But does anyone know how to get them in real life? Are they easy to find, and do they look any good on regular cars? And just how expensive are they?

I'd think a strip light would short out all the time what with wet roads and stuff... (wb by the way Mex )

But in any case how would you actually power the lights? If batteries then they'd be in constant need of replacement (not to mention having to actually crawl under the car to turn them on, erk), and if car battery then you'd need to pay an engineer a ridiculous sum to let him punch holes in your car... (i'm pretty good thank you, where ya been at?)

I don't think the current weather quite counts as summer... they need to invent a new season to account for all the heat. Greenhousmnter!

I guess those are neon lamps, clipped onto the bottom of the vehicle. Not more than that?!

Sorry to go off topic but i see this everywhere! do you actually know what "uber" really means. and its spelled wrong, its "ueber" or even more correct "über"

sig removed due to excessive size.
