It is easy. Buy about a hundred little neon bulbs. Epoxy each one in place. Forget the wires and power supply. That will just make the car look cheap. With neon, if your car is ever struck by lightening or caught in an electromagnetic storm, the bulbs will glow and you'll be able to locate your car.

I'd put about 10 on each body panel, two or three on the antenna, and a line down each side of the roof. They also look way cool when placed on each lugnut.

Is this question even worth a reply? The "to each his own" response is a cop-out, IMHO. That simply means no one wants to defend any aesthetic standards, or even believes that they exist.

Why don't you just smear glowing green shit all over the car, if that's what turns you on? It's your car, and you can do anything you want to it

Where's Plato now that we need him?

Hahaha-haha-ha! . . . . .right.

I'll say this, you sure know how to hit the ground running!

Sorry man. This site is know for it's tolerance but you obviously asked the wrong question. Patrons of the S are just slightly sensitive about turning it into a "clown" car. It's not you they're after it's the concept you embrace. A "pre-search" would have forewarned you about the general sentiment concerning this issue.

Welcome aboard! Don't worry, everybody understands you're new. They're just giving you a proper initation! Oh yeah, don't ask about putting a red interior in a yellow car either!

hmmm.... i don't think anything is wrong with asking a question on how to do it or if anyone has done it. This is a public thread on the s2000 and it should cover every aspect of the car. If someone was to ask if H.R.E. Wheels look good on the car, and i didn't think it did, i am not going to blast the guy, just say no...

Some people might like neon, or led washer lights or airplane wings, just because a few, or a majority don't, we should be too critical on it...
