I'm pretty sure its legal in Cali, I think it is in Arizona too. I don't know if its legal to drive with it on or not. In NJ it is illegal to have it on at all, that might be the same in Florida which is why you dont see it much.

.

The underglow lights aren't rice people have been doing that for years now. I would say get lights to match the color of your vehicle, which would be yellow. That or maybe black lights.

What I think would be rice is if a person takes it too far with the neons. Putting them everywhere in the car in the engine bay, all over the place, to me thats just too much.

I don't know if red is illegal but your not usually supposed to have neon lights on when driving, just when sitting in a parking lot.

So as long as "people" have been doing it for a long time it's alright??

Odd logic...

before i got rid of my underbody neons (cuz they're rice on imports) i have blue. i got pulled over once for em. cop said red and blue are illegal cuz they are emergency colors (at least in CA). my friend has green underbody under his expedition. now that looks nice. and we drive by cops all the time. they're green, so not illegal.

Many states ban the use of blue & red lights(besides tail lights)
As long as the light source is hidden its legal here.

i really don't like underglow, but that really doesn't serve any purpose to your thread. anyways, i think green or red if you want an actual color. but personally if i had a gold civic and i was going to put underglow on it, i think white would be tight. i think if you had a gold civic, slammed on some nice wheels, with white underglow, it would look nice as hell. but my real opinion would be to spend your money somewhere else. but thats just my .02 .....

to add on to this statement, this also includes green I believe, because to my understanding they're used by emt's.

Something that i dont know if its knew or not.
Underbody kits that fades back and forth when you rev your engine made by redline. Its a neat idea at least.
I agree though i do have better things to spend my money on :/
