My buddy has the line of fire and its actually pretty cool at night. I dont think it would look bad on your truck neon. He took his pic's off of facebook, so... yea I dont have pictures. I'll call him tonight and see if he can't throw some up.

hah no no I don't think a LED bar is nearly in the same relm as a wing. I like to customize my truck while still retaining a worklike appearance. As I always say, I want my truck to be able to show up on any construction site and not look like a homo. It's just an idea though. But, I've looked at a few youtube videos, and I think it's a bit much for me..

I think those things are kinda worthless. Especially when you see trucks with those things and half of the LEDs are either burnt out or malfunctioning.

Yeah exactly lol, love that look. I'm pretty OCD when it comes to anything malfunctioning though, but I've been thinking about it and don't really want it now. It would fast forward the persona of my truck being grouped in with the goobery truck owners, and defiantly don't want that happening. The truck is already stupid enough as is, I think I'll take a pass on the led bar.

On a happy note, I went to Napa and bought 6 quarts of mobil 1 synthetic 10w-30, napa gold oil filter, oil filter wrench, and an oil pan, and still came out at $58. That's $18 cheaper than getting my oil changed, and that's with buying the oil pan and wrench which was $10. I'll be saving myself $30 everytime I do it myself now which can go towards filling the pig up[8D]

But rock lights do. [8D]

My buddy had the lite bar and it was pretty sweet looking but it only lasted 6 months and half of the lights blew out. He got it from an autoparts store.

sometimes neaons make good rocklights too. I know I love using my green ones on my Jeep for night wheeling. definitely makes me stand out on the trail. its funny, the year i took this pic i had just put em on and i was the only one at the event running them. now two years later at the same event there were at least 20 rigs running neons on them at night.
