well its not finished. and i dont have any pictures yet. but i can atleast describe it.
you know those black plastic plate frames that come off the lot when you buy your new car... well i flipped mine around so i wouldnt advertise (i also removed the sticker from the dealer also)... well ive been trying to find a plate from that i like (and could justify spending money on) well ive had an idea to get a "pontiac" or Grand am gt" or "gt" well it hit me... NEON! so i took a soldering iron (my favorite tool) and melted the plastic out to say Ram Air. (granted the inside edges of the letter arent exactly perfect (thats my major flaw with this type of stuff, to derned lazy to make it perfect) but close is good seeing the letters are about 1 inch if that tall. anywho, 6 inch blue neon tube at the bottom of the letters looks good if i do say so myself 8-)
best part they were having a sale on led tubes and the neon tubes that pulsate to the music (was happy till i noticed there wasnt a switch to just have it on:( so the led tubes won.... 14 bucks for a 12" tube i had to get 4... going to do 2 under the driver and passanger seats... and 2 under the dash somewhere.... havent mounted them yet but ....
will post pictures tomorow.... after all the mounting/wireing is done.
