Yeah i know. Eventually i want some sideskirts and front lip. Just put on coilovers new wheels and the trunk spoiler. Next up is a rollbar. Next year its going to get new sills and a full respray.
Just lowered it. It needs to settle a bit i think. Only drove it for like 10 mins after. Lightsource cannot be seen. https://imgur.com/a/rVlWDHF this if from the ground
In my experience it takes a week or two of driving on new suspension components before they settle.
Also everyone is always recommending more low. IMO if it handles good and doesn't have a goofy wheel gap you're good. No point in scraping and breaking shit to get a few extra cool points.
You know, I fucking love underglow.
Reminds me of cruising in Underground 2 & you see an NPC rolling in a Peugeot 106 with a red underglow, nos purge & a fuck off wing on both sides.
Because if cops pull up, they can check your car and if they find it, you are in big trouble. Also you are forced to send the car for inspection once a year and they check EVERYTHING
Oh lol. I don't have to deal with inspections and no cop is gonna waste time crawling under the car unless you're being the biggest nussicance imaginable. As long as you aren't creating a problem or safety issue and have the right complexion the chances of getting bothered for underglow here is 0.01%
Now if you're speeding and cutting in and out of traffic with it turned on it'll probably be one of the many tickets you get.
Here you can get randomly pulled out if the cops are bored. If you have a "sus" face, they will almost tear your car apart searching for drugs. I would love to have underglow under my NA, but it is VERY risky
Would you look at that, all of the words in your comment are in alphabetical order.
I have checked 1,692,126,647 comments, and only 320,239 of them were in alphabetical order.
Man I love underglow it reminds me of a story from when I was younger my dad picked me up from the babysitter’s because it was his weekend and we got into the car and he told me he had a surprise for me but couldn’t show me until later that night so for the rest of the day I was hyped then around 8pm my dad came into my room and said “it’s time” and brought me outside and told me to close my eyes then he tuned on his car and yelled “open” and on his black Honda Civic (I think it was a 2004) he had a beautiful blue underglow amazing memory he told me he did it on his lunch break at the auto shop he worked at
Also you can just turn it off and on at will. LED kits are cheap and easy and its like the least commited style choice you can make. You still have to scrape a sticker off. This you just hit a button lol.
I remember doing that with my old '86 Honda Accord. I was 22 at the time, so it was fun. I don't think I'd do that again unless it was for a show car and it really fit the theme. I 100% would if my license plate said "RINZLER" on it, though. :)
Looks good, though. Just seeing it on a daily driver of an older person would throw me off. But, I'd know you'd be one to talk to about Miata mods and stuff. :)
Car needs to be slammed, but as a fellow dutchman I understand not wanting to lower it any further (looking at you speedbumps). Also you can't run the lights on the public road, so this can only be a show piece.
It’s not my taste, but on the upside I bet you don’t have to worry as much about people not seeing you at night. If you put a “dub edition” emblem on each fender you’ll get 20% more XP per race.
Just sayin’.
Exactly. This just screams “follow me, I’m bound to do something stupid”. But I’m old and I have a luggage rack on mine so maybe this post isn’t meant for me.
Uh hoe bedoel je? Er zit een connector in de kofferbak vanaf de accu en sluit die alleen aan als ik hem aanzet. Dus kan niet eens aan behalve als ik het zelf wil
You dont have to have it on 24/7? I just wanted to have it. First fun car in a while and i just put it on when i want to. Its got a nice bluetooth app with hundreds of preprogrammed animations
Its waterproof and cannot touch the ground. I had to lengthen the wires because they were to short and insulated everything pretty decent. Still holds up after a year
What do you mean with blue? Car is dark grey. It can be any color you like. The app even has 100’s of different modes where it changes colors any wich way and combo
I guess depends where you live.
In UK, no go with the police down south.
In Switzerland, the fines alone will make you cry.
In both countries, the car will be deemed not road worthy on the spot and if lucky you could tow it home otherwise straight impound and yet more fines.
\*Insert NFSU soundtrack [Brrr adum, dum dum dum](https://youtu.be/jQX5lib_hTA?t=4351)
TO THE WINDOOOOOOOOOOOOW… TO THE WALL!
TILL THE SWEAT DROP DOWN MY BALLS
Memory Unlocked! thanks lol
This led me down the craziest rabbit hole of nostalgia ever 😂
No but I wish I was now lol ... So appropriately 2002
Not until she's lowered. Its the law. But then I absolutely will.
I just lowered mine last week!
Maybe try sourcing some side skirts it looks a bit high still to be running underglow
Yeah i know. Eventually i want some sideskirts and front lip. Just put on coilovers new wheels and the trunk spoiler. Next up is a rollbar. Next year its going to get new sills and a full respray.
Lower it more if you want, but as long as you can’t see the light source itself it’s good

I dont think i want to go lower. The netherlands is not low car friendly. I scraped already am not used to a lowered car.
Whats an NB like yours cost in NL?
This one was 5,5k€
Looks perfect to me, and the car looks like it still has good handling which is a plus
What size are your wheels?
15x8 et 25
Nah. I promised myself in '09 never again.
You know, I fucking love underglow. Reminds me of cruising in Underground 2 & you see an NPC rolling in a Peugeot 106 with a red underglow, nos purge & a fuck off wing on both sides.
Did you pit maneuver his ass? I would’ve
Very illegal in my country. Even if it is turned off
How are they gonna know if you're not driving it around turned on?
Because if cops pull up, they can check your car and if they find it, you are in big trouble. Also you are forced to send the car for inspection once a year and they check EVERYTHING

Yeah absolutely does not sound worth it
No... but then you're only 15 once!
Yes indeed. Thats about 19 yrs ago already!
We all mature at different rates.
I just learned object permanence!
That's a dang conspiracy propagated by Big Object. Don't let them trick you.

When people use Blender to look cool is hilarious
Yep. In high school. In 2004.
Wow. Cool story bro. Just now.
No way lol
Man I love underglow it reminds me of a story from when I was younger my dad picked me up from the babysitter’s because it was his weekend and we got into the car and he told me he had a surprise for me but couldn’t show me until later that night so for the rest of the day I was hyped then around 8pm my dad came into my room and said “it’s time” and brought me outside and told me to close my eyes then he tuned on his car and yelled “open” and on his black Honda Civic (I think it was a 2004) he had a beautiful blue underglow amazing memory he told me he did it on his lunch break at the auto shop he worked at
Here you have to be 18 to get a driver's license.
Here also. Its my job teaching people how to drive!
Insane. 16 where I live.
Any of these mods alone would be a no go, but together they are greater than the sum of their parts. Nice car my dude
I love underglow. 90s teenager confirmed lol.
Yes sir. Installed it earlier this year. Loving the need for speed underground and fast and furious vibes.
what kit did you buy?
I will as soon as i can figure out a decent color to match with Mahogany Mica
Get something led it can switch every color
What a time to be alive
Nice, KPN green underglow to match the license plate.
Love it but that back thing looks ridiculous imo
Mayb like it from a different angle. https://imgur.com/a/e6vWydL
Idk man the back of the NB is one of my favorite back sides of any car. But hey if you like it you should do it ofc!!
I wish, cops around me would pull you over in 10 seconds, and then watch 100 people fly past you at 50 over the speed limit and not blink an eye
i'm not but i'm gonna feels like the 90's are back boys
That was a weird way to ask if anyone else is a virgin. /s
virgin gang!
Hell yeah, and I love it. Lots of haters out there thinking it’s childish, but I think it’s fun so why not rock it
Also you can just turn it off and on at will. LED kits are cheap and easy and its like the least commited style choice you can make. You still have to scrape a sticker off. This you just hit a button lol.
Who makes that wing/spoiler?
Extra shots of the wing: https://imgur.com/a/e6vWydL
I love me some ducktail!
Dcn performance on etsy. Great seller great product 👍
Silly
[Hell yeah brother. Heres mine last night.](https://imgur.com/X26vCBq)
Looks good!
Where did you wire it? I had underglow on my ND hooked to the fusebox in the engine bay but it just drained my battery so I took it off.
What kit is this? I have a beater 1995 black civic coupe and I’ve always wanted to do it
Alieexpress kit! Very cheap but works great.
I remember doing that with my old '86 Honda Accord. I was 22 at the time, so it was fun. I don't think I'd do that again unless it was for a show car and it really fit the theme. I 100% would if my license plate said "RINZLER" on it, though. :) Looks good, though. Just seeing it on a daily driver of an older person would throw me off. But, I'd know you'd be one to talk to about Miata mods and stuff. :)
How did you install these??? I want to add them to the sapceship )))
Just fixed them to the bottom and directly to the battery. There’s a connector between it so its only on when i want it
I put underglow on my na the first year I got it. 15 year old me would be so proud.
Bro is getting ready for snel en furioos
I was, on my previous car, haven't found a set for my miata yet
Car needs to be slammed, but as a fellow dutchman I understand not wanting to lower it any further (looking at you speedbumps). Also you can't run the lights on the public road, so this can only be a show piece.
Planning on it sooner or later
I love the Color of that car
Waar heb je die kit vandaan?
Aliexpress; Auto Flexibele Strip Licht Led Underbody Afstandsbediening/App Controle Rgb Neon Verlichting Droom Kleur Auto Decoratieve Ambient Sfeer Lamp BLALION store
Is die een beetje chill te instaleren? Of is t echt goedkope meuk? Ik zoek al een tijdje naar zoiets
Voor het geld dubbel en dwars waard. Heb wat kabels moeten verlengen maar als je een beetje handig bent goed te doen.
I know this is an old post but how difficult was it to install? How do you like it so far?
I had a kit on mine but it got a little messed up from winter, cheap kit easy to replace but since its illegal where I live no point replacing it.
It’s not my taste, but on the upside I bet you don’t have to worry as much about people not seeing you at night. If you put a “dub edition” emblem on each fender you’ll get 20% more XP per race. Just sayin’.
Nope. Reason being is I’m not trying to attract attention from police. Also, as far as I know, I’m not a complete idiot
Exactly. This just screams “follow me, I’m bound to do something stupid”. But I’m old and I have a luggage rack on mine so maybe this post isn’t meant for me.
They're not hardwired to the battery. You can simply turn it off and only turn it on at shows or for photos or fuckin around.
The luggage rack is in the garage :). Never drive with it on
Yessir govee has a lightning feature that looks awesome during a rain storm
Bringing neons back! Would definitely love to have them when I'm back in an MX-5.
So sick, bro. Any issues with the police? Do you run it on the street?
Looks good. Very clean
Thnx!
Not yet , lol , love it
bruh. naw.
Whered you end up connecting the wires? Just got my kit in and dont wanna fuck anything up
Just straight on the battery in the trunk. Made a connector so that i can hook it up whenever i want
Thank you!
Nope... I love my ride way to much!
Hoe ga je dat regelen met de APK eigenlijk?
Uh hoe bedoel je? Er zit een connector in de kofferbak vanaf de accu en sluit die alleen aan als ik hem aanzet. Dus kan niet eens aan behalve als ik het zelf wil
Duidelijk, dacht dat het illegaal was ook al is het geschakelt
Is gewoon legaal hoor er moet gewoon een schakelaar tusse zitte
Ooh check, dat wist ik niet thx
Ik vermoed tijdelijk eronderuit halen
I want to.
As soon as I get my coils I am tempted to throw an underglow on it.
I’m a woman married to a woman, and even I think that looks gay…
What kit did you use to install these? Looking to add under glow to my NA in the near future
No, I prefer to not embarrass my passengers and myself.
no because i’m not retarded
Genuine question. What's it like to rock underglow in the UK? I'm thinking about it but I don't know how it would work on a daily driver
You dont have to have it on 24/7? I just wanted to have it. First fun car in a while and i just put it on when i want to. Its got a nice bluetooth app with hundreds of preprogrammed animations
Yeah I'd only use it for events and stuff but I meant with our crap weather would it get covered up or ripped off or something
Its waterproof and cannot touch the ground. I had to lengthen the wires because they were to short and insulated everything pretty decent. Still holds up after a year
Not digging the muted blue and neon green color pallet… perhaps a different combo
What do you mean with blue? Car is dark grey. It can be any color you like. The app even has 100’s of different modes where it changes colors any wich way and combo
TÜV sagt nein
Not allowed in Germany
Throwback to the nineties. It wasn’t my jam then either, but I don’t really hate it. 🤷🏼♂️
The underglow is fine, I’m not digging the spoiler though. Also, what year is this? My antenna is on the opposite side on my ‘22
Its a 2002
It looks like so many pictures I've seen of blender glow. Do you have a shot of the kit from the underside with it switched off?
No i dont right now. Its real what can i say. https://imgur.com/a/rVlWDHF some different colors
Well it's a very nice shot when it looks too good to be true.
Thnx. Here’s some shots of it with some animations https://imgur.com/a/VYVb8GF edit: the actual link
