    I actually think it's pretty clever. Would be good to have matching lighting effects to a killer sound system for example. Just for static display. If I saw it on the road at all it's be a massive facepalm!

    I don't see how this is classed as a "race inspired cosmetic enhancement" do not think I have ever seen a race car with colour changing lights.

    I think its a smart use of lights and technology, it will go great on show cars and limo's pulling up to "occasions where you want to be noticed" going with music etc.

    I actually don't mind it. Looks pretty cool. If you had a show car or a burnout car and the lights changed colours like that, it would certainly set it apart and add something a little different.

    wont take long and we'll hear stories about idiots with them set to flash blue and red, i heard on the radio the other day some kids pulled over some lady, i acted like a cop the other snuck around the passenger side and tried to take her bag, she took off tho, there will be alot more similar i reckon, for burnouts or show cars would be cool

    It's nothing new. Just something new that company stocks... RGB lighting is not a "NEW" thing...

    I reckon they look awesome, they still function as a normal light [white] so why say it's shit? It's as shit as putting neons under your car I guess. If I had a show import, it would have those lights lol

    I used to have a red and blue lighter, only tried it once on the dash and someone pulled over so I over took them.

    My friends did it too in their car with theirs, and apparently the person they pulled over was an undercover cop who later pulled them over for impersonating police.
