some appearance ???s
ok so i seen this guy has alot of sweet ideas that i would like to try http://www.paveglio.com/firebird/2001tamods.html like the lit nostrils but can anyone shed some light on the neon subject is some illegal or whats the regulations a friend was trying to tell me it was all illegal but idk. Also im getting my windows tinted in a couple weeks and looking for suggestions on how dark to go i was thinking maybe 20 on the sides and 10 in the back. This is on a black WS6 if this matters to anyone, but I like my privacy.

okay, this is my understanding of the neon 'law'. flashing, or solid, red and/or blue is illegal because it's for emergency vehicles. I would think if you never had it on you would be fine. you probably also would not want to have them on while driving just in case. when you're parked I've seen people with neons that flash, bass pulse, and move through a color pattern and it hasn't caused any of them any trouble. You really need to check you're local laws for that because a cop could just be having a bad day and nab you for it.
window tint...really depends on the state. I have 5 % on everything but the front, including T-Tops. In Oklahoma, it's 20% but nobody has ever called me on it. one thing I would do is if you get pulled over, put your window down all the way so he won't notice the contrast.

I live in illinois and I was told by a cop friend that neons are perfectly legal so long as you are parked. As for the tints in Chicago we cannot tint the front windows at all but the back could be as dark as you want. With that being said I have a 5% on the rear and 15% on the fronts. But where I live most cops don't really care so long as you aren't driving like an ass.
i agree with the above, just check your local laws and see what you could get away with. If you know any cops ask them if they pull people over regularly for tints or neons. that way you'll know if they are really strict on those laws
