unless youve spent 40 grand plus making it look, sound and go like the best modified car on the road then id say a DEFINATE NO, neons are not a good thing to put on any car let alone a scooby

I saw spinners on a scoob in leeds the other day. I was tempted to walk up and fine the owner for crimes against humanity (and automobility)

serious - we want to see some pic - saw a white scooby with blue neons and it looked quite nice. And always thought white neons gave a show stand appearance - neutral underlighting.

No offence mate, but Scoobynet isn't exactly what you'd call a 'krooz' site.

Neons, spinners and all that other stuff from halfords aren't generally appreciated around here.

Its personal choice, get neons if you like them, screw everyone else and there opinions because everyones different. some like standard look, others like a modded look.

my woman asked me last year 'what do you want for your birthday oh great one' added the last bit for the affect.I said I'd love a really nice watch or some shades. rrrrrrrrrrr she said;

didn not know that she'd spoke to her brother that i can't stand who was 18 at the time and he said i'd bet he'd like a set of neons there cool.
any the silly cow bought them over £500 worth suppose to be the bollox no watch no shades fooking neons.
there still in the box and big bag they came in the garage. i'm gonna give them to that TW@T when he passes his test see how he likes it.
anyway no i hate neons on any car but each to there own

What a waste of a thread, can people stop worrying about what does and doesn't look good on a subaru??

(Note: to everybody --Subaru's are not Ferraris or Porsches, they are normal road cars, and are affordable by most nowadays)

Do you all go to work in Armani suits or something???




...And no I don't have neons...but I don't see a reason why an Impreza shouldn't have them fitted.....
