For just cruising? That's pretty sad. But in Montreal Canada, you can charged for having certain parts on your car. There's lights called Altezzas and if you have a certain brand, you can get a 300$ ticket. The NHTSA fined American Products Company 500k for selling euro tail type lights at least once this year. (they're not marketed as altezza here because there would probably be copyright issues with Toyota LOL) For the most part I kept (and keep) away from street racing. Occasionally I'd race in Chicago, but I was the money handler otherwise. That scene gets old quick, it becomes repetitious and boring, and if this is someone's idea of a weekend ritual I'd say they're pretty f***ing hard up. LOL Plus I've never had the urge to buy bodykits, neon lighting, and stickers for model types that don't exist. lol I work too hard for what I've earned to spend the money I have left after bills on such things. Unless the bodykits are edible I'm pretty sure I'm better off buying groceries. *nods* lol And the car I've inherited this year has had it's fair share of recalls already so I think I'll leave well enough alone. and smh @ that last photo! damn!

Well they call him Altezzas here but you mostly see the lights on Hondas. *EWWW! Yes, I hate Hondas. I LOATHE Hondas.* Anyway, with that aside...
Honda/Acrua and Neon body kits cost like 1000 to 1500$ in canada if you got the right hook ups. But most of the people who fix up their car have money that they could have put to better use. There was one guy who made his doors open like a Lamborghini and another guy who made his doors open like the Delorean*Remember that car from Back to the Future? That one* I mean honestly. Instead of wasting money on that, save it up or do something else with it.
As for Neon lights, you can get them at Wal Mart for 59, 99 in ALL colors. Pink, orange, Blue, Green. lol. What car do you have?
I'm saving up for a Nissan fairlady Z. Not the new one but the older one from '93. The 300 ZX.

And I'll buy some rope lights from Target and string those across the dashboard. And viola, rave on wheels! lmao Yes, that makes me cringe. No amount of money you invest in aftermarket products and bodykits will turn your car into a Murciélago, or similarly styled car. Period. But... if people want to spend money on this sort of thing, that's their prerogative. *shrugs* I drive a black ZX3. And thankfully I have use of my significant other's red rx7 (he'll be buying the Rx8 next year and I'm pretty sure the privilege of driving his cars will be cut off at that point. lol) as well, because my brother's doing engine work on his own car so he's confiscated the zx3 for the time being. So yeah, me and the Focus. And its recalls. Vroom, baby! Vroom! LOL

My brother told me that you can get the neon lights that change all colors. So it'll go from blue to green to purple...Is it just me or is this making you sick too? Plus let's not forget, you can get a body kit here at 599$: Click HereWith that aside here's my brother's car: 260 000 km so far, its a 88 corolla sr5. And imagine that a city bus took off the front end of this car. For the winter he's restoring the entire car. This is his baby. ;D The top pic, he still had on his winter tires.
